The tape measure protein is not the longest protein in the genome, and it is located in an atypical region– amidst the genes that encode proteins found in the capsid. |

BF phages have a large cassette of tRNAs, which will not be drawn on a Phamerator map. It will look like a gap in coding genes. |

the terminase proteins are located near the center of the genome, downstream from all the minor tail proteins. |

The immunity repressor is located just after the minor tail proteins and lysin, and the integrase is locate far downstream. |

BD phages have a single endolysin, it should be labeled "lysin A". |

Cluster BB contains some phages that were not isolated and sequenced by the SEA-PHAGES program. Their finders annotated the genomes differently. We are taking on the QC of these genomes but haven't reviewed the files yet. These phages are: phiC31, TG1, and phiBT1 |

Cluster BA contains some phages that were not isolated and sequenced by the SEA-PHAGES program. Their finders chose a different bp1 than we did, and annotated their genomes differently. We do not curate, update, or QC these genomes. These phages are: SPB78, Sros11, and VWB. |

AV phages are myoviridae, and so encode tail tube and tail sheath proteins. |

AV phages encode a large tail protein called a tail spike that is the functional equivalent of a tail fiber. It is large enough to be visible in the TEM, and its structural domains are based on beta-prisms and helices, rather than alpha coiled coils. The most famous example is the tail spike of Salmonella phage P22. |
