Nine Novel Cluster E Mycobacteriophages Isolated from Soil
Abstract
Novel mycobacteriophages FireRed, MISSy, MPhalcon, Murica, Sassay, Terminus, Willez, YassJohnny, and Youngblood were isolated from soil samples on the host Mycobacterium smegmatis. Transmission electron microscopy revealed phage structures suggestive of the Siphoviridae family of phages. Phage genomes were sequenced and annotated, revealing that they belong to actinobacteriophage Cluster E. Here, we describe the features of these phage genomes and discuss their similarity to previously discovered cluster E phages.
