Genome sequencing reveals 102 protein-coding genes in an actinobacteriophage infecting Arthrobacter globiformis, indicating its potential role in phage therapy.
We sequenced the complete genome of SilentRX, an actinobacteriophage with siphovirus morphology in cluster AP that infects Arthrobacter globiformis NRRL B-2979. The phage possessed a capsid width of 55 nm and a tail length of 215 nm. With a length of 65,232 bp, the genome contained 102 predicted protein-coding genes.
