Croceibacter atlanticus HTCC2559(T), a marine bacterium isolated from the Sargasso Sea, is a phylogenetically unique member of the family Flavobacteriaceae. Strain HTCC2559(T) possesses genes related to interaction with primary producers, which makes studies on bacteriophages infecting the strain interesting. Here we report the genome sequence of bacteriophage P2559S, which was isolated off the coast of the Republic of Korea and lytically infects HTCC2559(T). Many genes predicted in the P2559S genome had their homologs in Bacteroides phages.
大西洋克罗卡菌 HTCC2559(T)，一种从马尾藻海分离到的海洋细菌，是黄杆菌科中一个系统发育上独特的成员。菌株 HTCC2559(T) 拥有与初级生产者相互作用的相关基因，这使得研究感染该菌株的噬菌体变得有趣。在这里，我们报告了噬菌体 P2559S 的基因组序列，该噬菌体是在韩国沿海分离出来的，可裂解感染 HTCC2559(T)。在 P2559S 基因组中预测的许多基因在拟杆菌噬菌体中都有同源物。
