endolysinsome arthrobacter and streptomyces phages have a single endolysin with domains not found in the Mycobacteriophages (like the CHAP domain). use "endolysin" rather than lysin A if the phage does not infect Mycobacterium and no lysin B can be identified.if you only have one gene to call a lysin or endolysin, do not add a domain.

holinevidence needed to call a holin can include biochemical data (1), seqeunce similarity to genes with biochemical data (2), at least 2 transmembrane domians found and the gene be adjacent to the endolysins (s), conderved domain hits (4), and the abscence of additional transmembrane domains in the area. The literature suggests that some phages have more than one holin, for now when we seem multiple possibilities for a holin gene, let's call them membrane proteins.D29_11

exciseExcisionase, Xis, only one per phage;check to see if CRODo not call a protein excise unless you can identify a tyrosine integrase and the immunity repressor in the phage. A more general "helix-turn-helix DNA binding protein" might be more appropriate if you can't distinguish otherwise.Excision occurs differently in a phage with a serine recombinase. Instead of excise (which it will not have), you may be able to find a RDF (recombination directionality factor) that does the same task.D29_36

Cro (control of repressor's operator)Do not call a protein Cro unless you can identify the integrase and the immunity repressor in the phage. Cro will be present with both the serine and tyrosine integrases. When you have mutliple HTH hits in this region and cannot differentiate which one is the immunity repressor and which is the Cro, consider using the HTH designation.Che9c_47

Cas4 exonucleaseThis family of exonucleases is similar to the exonuclease domain of RecB. The Cas4 label should be used if the gene includes only the exonuclease region. IF the gene also includes a helicase domain, the RecB label should be used. Cas4 family nucleases tend to have alignments to the crystal structure 4R5Q_A, 41C1_A and to the PD-(D/E)XK nuclease superfamily (PF12705.7, among others).BiteSize_gp54
