lysin A is found within the group of minor tail protein in the left arm, rather than upstream or downstream of all the structural genes.

Cluster CU contains a phage that was not isolated and sequenced by the SEA-PHAGES program. Its finders annotated the genome differently. We do not curate, update, or QC this genome.

This phage is:
Gsput1

Lysin B is not found adjacent to Lysin A in a lysis cassette— instead it is located over in the right arm.

Lysin A, which is a single multi-domain protein in many Actinobacteriophages, is split at the domain boundaries encoded by two adjacent genes in cluster CS. The functions should be reported as "lysin A, whatever the domain is" to indicate that each gene does not encode the full lysin A.

Cluster CS 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:
GMA7 and GTE7
