Tail assembly chaperones

rlb6	Although the group annotating the Bibwit genome has not seen other supporting data, there is synteny with the tail assembly chaperones (genes 31 and 32) annotated in Gordonia phage Sitar. I do not see that a frameshift has been identified for Sitar_32. Should we propose a frameshift or hold off and wait for other evidence that may be pending for Sitar?

debbie	Hi. My supporting data is: Sitar_31 has a Pfam hit to TAC (90.6%/40% coverage). It is in the right location for a TAC. The G protein most typically hits homologs (vs T). I could not find the slippery sequence when I checked this genome. Could it be a +1 at position 24240, 24242?
