Gene or no gene?

We have been examining gaps in phage Culver, right near quite a few tRNAs. In one region, we find a decently long ORF(165bp). There is a smidge of CP, but very little. There is one BLAST match with Phage WilliamBoone. Should we call it? I attached an image that has a bunch of information on the gene. Thank you for any advice! |

Hi Ellen, I do not see any coding potential in this area. I would not call a gene there. Also remember that the red dotted lines of coding potential are not a good indicator of coding potential. (The represent patterns of 2 nucleotides (which is very noisy). best, debbie |
