Welcome to the PhiSpy wiki!

Color Codes

If you include the --color flag in your PhiSpy.py command, we will color all the genes in the genome (whether or not they are predicted to be in prophages) so you can visualize them in Artemis (see the Artemis PDF manual for more information on Artemis)

The colours we currently use are:

Color Meaning
Red This is an integrase or recombinase that likely marks a prophage insertion
Blue This is another phage protein other than integrase
Pink This is a mobile genetic element
Light Grey This is a protein with unknown (hypothetical) function
Light Blue This protein has a hit to your hmm database (note we only colour proteins that are not already red/blue/pink)
