Abstract

The Bacillus cereus group bacteriophage Flapjack, a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) Myoviridae isolate collected from soil collected in Washington, DC, is a member of cluster C3 and encodes an intramolecular chaperone-containing tail fiber protein previously found in Podoviridae and Siphoviridae but not annotated in the Myoviridae.
