Abstract

Lolalove, a B4 subcluster soil bacteriophage of Mycobacterium smegmatis, was isolated in Charleston, SC. It possesses a 71,111-bp linear double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genome with 99 protein-coding genes and a GC content of 68.9%. genome BLASTn alignments indicate high sequence identity to the related B4 subcluster M. smegmatis phages BrownCNA, Mithril, and Hangman.
