Abstract

Mycobacteriophage Ryadel is a newly isolated cluster O Siphoviridae bacteriophage, characterized by an unusual prolate capsid, containing a 72,658-base-pair double-stranded DNA genome with 132 predicted protein-coding genes. Conserved among cluster O bacteriophages, the Ryadel genome contains 31 copies of a unique 17-bp sequence with dyad symmetry.

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) of mycobacteriophage Ryadel. Purified high-titer lysate was placed on a carbon type-B 300 mesh grid, stained with uranyl acetate, and imaged by a FEI Tecnai G2 Spirit BioTWIN (NL1.160G). TEM micrographs of negatively stained mycobacteriophage Ryadel showed a prolate capsid that was 160 nm in length by 40 nm in width (4:1 ratio), a morphology that corresponds to that of members of cluster O bacteriophages within the Siphoviridae family.
