2024-06-04 Complete genome of a novel mycobacteriophage WXIN isolated in Wuhan, China doi:10.57760/sciencedb.16539 en In this study, a novel mycobacteriophage WXIN was isolated from soil samples in Wuhan, China, using M. septicum as alternative host. Whole genome analysis indicates that the phage genome consists of 115,158 bp with a GC content of 61.9%. Of the 260 putative open reading frames, 46 may be associated with phage packaging, structure, lysis, lysogeny, genome modification/replication, and other functional roles. The limited genome-wide similarity, along with phylogenetic trees constructed based on viral proteome and orthologous genes show that phage WXIN represents a novel phage distantly related to cluster J mycobacteriophages (genus Omegavirus). Overall, these results provide novel insights into the genomic properties of mycobacteriophages, highlighting the great genetic diversity of mycobacteriophages in regard to their hosts. mycobacteriophage; Mycobacterium septicum; complete genome Haoming Wu Wenxin Li Jiaxin Li PUBLIC https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/pddl/1-0/ dataset http://www.doi.org/10.1186/s12863-024-01244-8 Science Data Bank
