The Sanger Institute Pathogen Genomics group is sequencing a
number of bacteriophage from various sources. Sequence data for each
project will be made available for download (FTP site )
and searching (BLAST
server ) once assemblies have begun. The annotation will be made
available upon publication. Please read our data release policy and guidelines and conditions on use
of data .

Data Release Statement
This sequencing centre plans on publishing the
completed and annotated sequences in a peer-reviewed journal as soon as possible.
Permission of the principal investigator should be obtained before publishing
analyses of the sequence/open reading frames/genes on a chromosome or genome scale.
Finishing warning
Please note that although finishing has begun, the
assembly database may still contain errors and misassemblies, and
E. coli and vector contamination. The contig numbers are not
stable, and will vary with each data release. The sequences in the
shotgun database are single reads from ABI sequencers; they will
contain errors, along with both E. coli and vector
contamination.
Enquiries about sequencing or analysis should be directed to Nick Thomson or Julian Parkhill .
