The complete genome sequence of Siphoviridae bacteriophage Stinson is 59.9kb long and comprises 78 putative protein coding genes. This subcluster K1 phage, infecting Mycobacterium smegmatis mc²155, has a temperate life cycle which is maintained by the immunity repressor protein, responsible for suppressing lysogenic gene expression.
