Abstract
Here, we describe the Salmonella enterica serovar Heidelberg phage Matapan. A myophage with a 157,408-kb genome, Matapan is most closely related to Vi01-like phages.
Highlights
We describe the Salmonella enterica serovar Heidelberg phage Matapan
Similarities to phage T4 in the structural region led to reopening the genome according to convention, in front of the rIIA-like gene
The genome sequence and associated data for phage Matapan were deposited under GenBank accession number MN066127, BioProject accession number PRJNA222858, SRA accession number SRR8869240, and BioSample accession number SAMN11360418
Summary
We describe the Salmonella enterica serovar Heidelberg phage Matapan. A myophage with a 157,408-kb genome, Matapan is most closely related to Vi01-like phages. Matapan is a Vi01-like myophage with a 157,408-kb genome with a GϩC content of 44.9%, a 93.0% coding density, 214 protein-coding genes, and 3 tRNAs. As determined by progressiveMauve, Matapan shares nucleotide similarities of 91.3%, 89.5%, 88.2%, Volume 8 Issue 38 e01017-19
