| Detailed Information for Phage Dorin |
| Discovery Information |
| Isolation Host | Rhodococcus equi NRRL B-16538 |
| Found By | Leilani Madrigal |
| Year Found | 2023 |
| Location Found | Grand Rapids, MI United States |
| Finding Institution | Calvin University |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | 30°C |
| GPS Coordinates | 42.928267 N, 85.587137 W Map |
| Discovery Notes | Soil was collected near a pond. The ground was damp, not very grassy. The soil was taken from the top layer of soil. The dirt itself was also damp, mulchy, and very spongy |
| Naming Notes | The origin of the name is Hebrew, which means gift. |
| Sequencing Information |
| Sequencing Complete? | Yes |
| Date Sequencing Completed | Feb 23, 2024 |
| Sequencing Facility | NC State Genomic Sciences Laboratory |
| Shotgun Sequencing Method | Illumina Sequencing |
| Approximate Shotgun Coverage | 104 |
| Genome length (bp) | 136968 |
| Character of genome ends | Direct Terminal Repeat |
| Direct Terminal Repeat Length | 4720 bp |
| End Determination Notes | We ran PhageTerm on the Pastuer Institute's Galaxy server which showed and area of roughly 5 kb with ~2x the coverage of the rest of the genome. We inspected the ends of the region and found read buildups indicating the edges of a consistent terminal repeat. |
| GC Content | 48.0% |
| Sequencing Notes | Since this was the first of its cluster we'd seen, we oriented it so that the terminase and tapemeasure genes were in the forward direction. |
