Detailed Information for Phage Tortoise16
Discovery Information
Isolation Host	Mycobacterium smegmatis mc²155
Found By	Thomas McNamara
Year Found	2013
Location Found	Hartford, CT United States of America
Finding Institution	Trinity College
Program	Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science
From enriched soil sample?	Yes
Isolation Temperature	Not entered
GPS Coordinates	41.749093 N, 72.691956 W Map
Discovery Notes	The sample was collected on the South side of the Trinity College Chapel, under a rose bush. It was taken from approximately 10 cm below the surface. The soil was dark brown, and slightly moist.
Naming Notes	This phage's name was inspired by the story of the Tortoise and the Hare.
Sequencing Information
Sequencing Complete?	Yes
Date Sequencing Completed	Dec 11, 2013
Sequencing Facility	Pittsburgh Bacteriophage Institute
Shotgun Sequencing Method	Illumina Sequencing
Approximate Shotgun Coverage	479
Genome length (bp)	154584
Character of genome ends	Circularly Permuted
GC Content	64.8%
Sequencing Notes	This phage has a long run of Cs at its right end, similar to the genome of Bxb1. No sequencing technique has been able to reliably resolve the length of this stretch of nucleotides. From our best guess, it's about 30 Cs long, so we've included 30 Cs at the right end of the final sequence file.
