Rhizobium Phage-Like Microvirus Genome Sequence Identified in Wastewater in Arizona, USA, in November 2020 Encodes an Endolysin and a Putative Multiheme Cytochrome c-like Protein.

ABSTRACT

We describe the genome (4,696 nucleotides [GC content, 56%; coverage, 3,641×) of MAZ-Nov-2020, a microvirus identified from municipal wastewater in Maricopa County, Arizona, USA, in November 2020. The MAZ-Nov-2020 genome encodes major capsid protein, endolysin, replication initiator protein, and two hypothetical proteins, one of which was predicted to likely be a membrane-associated multiheme cytochrome c.
