Genome Sequence of Actinobacteriophage BaronJohn, Isolated on Microbacterium foliorum on the College of Coastal Georgia Campus

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Actinobacteriophage BaronJohn was isolated from soil collected near the Lakeside dormitory building on the campus of the College of Coastal Georgia using Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224 as a host.BaronJohn has a genome length and gene content similar to that of phages in cluster EA5.Specifically, BaronJohn encodes a tail assembly chaperone with a -1 translational frameshift, a tRNA-Ala gene, two glycosyltransferases in tandem and a lysin A downstream of the minor tail proteins.
