Bacteriophage Rummer is a siphovirus morphology actinophage isolated from Mycobacterium smegmatis. Rummer has a 50,908 base pair (bp) genome encoding 89 predicted protein-coding genes and three (3) tRNAs. Based on gene content similarity to sequenced actinobacteriophages, Rummer is assigned to phage subcluster A3.
