Klebsiella phage vB_KleM-RaK2 - a giant singleton virus of the family Myoviridae.

PLoS ONE, 2013
At 346 kbp in size, the genome of a jumbo bacteriophage vB_KleM-RaK2 (RaK2) is the largest Klebsiella infecting myovirus genome sequenced to date. In total, 272 out of 534 RaK2 ORFs lack detectable database homologues.

Unexplored diversity and molecular genetic signatures of chimallin and phuz encoding phages

BMC Genomics
Nucleus-forming phages are a class of jumbo phages with the capacity to form a protein nuclear shell during infection within a bacterial host. This protein nuclear shell protects the replication of the phage genome by excluding host defense factors ...

Erwinia amylovora phage vB_EamM_Y3 represents another lineage of hairy myoviridae

, 2018
To date, a small number of jumbo myoviruses have been reported to possess atypical whisker-like structures along the surface of their contractile tails. Erwinia amylovora phage vB_EamM_Y3 is another example.
