| Naming Notes | Our Phage is really good at killing bacteria, so inspired by one of the killers in the Halloween movies Michael Myers, we wanted to represent that quality. |
| Sequencing Information | |
| Sequencing Complete? | No |
| Genome length (bp) | Unknown |
| Character of genome ends | Unknown |
| Fasta file available? | No |
| Characterization | |
| Cluster | BM |
| Subcluster | -- |
| Cluster Life Cycle | Lytic |
| Lysogeny Notes | A lysogeny test was performed on DaRealMyers, lasting for sixteen days. Using a spot test on S. mirabilis with serially diluted lysate of DaRealMyers, the life cycle of DaRealMyers could be identified. After sixteen days in the incubator, no mesa was observed on any of the serial dilutions of DaRealMyers . This suggests that DaRealMyers is virulent. |
| Annotating Institution | Unknown or unassigned |
