Discovery Information
Isolation HostMycobacterium smegmatis mc²155
Found ByJoanna Smith & Brian Lott
Year Found2013
Location FoundSanta Cruz, CA USA
Finding InstitutionUniversity of California, Santa Cruz
ProgramScience Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science
From enriched soil sample?Yes
Isolation TemperatureNot entered
GPS Coordinates36.991525 N, 122.058426 W Map
Discovery NotesFound in a compost pile at the UCSC Center for Agroecology, about 1 inch deep in the compost pile. Phage discovered, purified, and named by Joanna Smith. DNA purification and restriction digests were performed by Brian Lott.
Naming NotesTwo separate phages were isolated from the same sample. During purification their morphologies were noticeably different, one was small (called 'Teenie') and the other was very large (appropriately named 'Chunky'.)
