Streptomyces vitaminophilus produces pyrrolomycins, which are halogenated polyketide antibiotics. Some of the pyrrolomycins contain a rare nitro group located on the pyrrole ring. In addition, the 6.5-Mbp genome encodes 5,941 predicted protein-coding sequences in 39 contigs with a 71.9% G+C content.
ABSTRACT The complete genome sequence of Cyanobacterium sp. strain HL-69 consists of 3,155,247 bp and contains 2,897 predicted genes comprising a chromosome and two plasmids. The genome is consistent with a halophilic nondiazotrophic phototrophic lifestyle, and this organism is able to synthesize most B vitamins and produces several secondary metabolites.
We announce here the genome sequencing of Pseudomonas sp. strain 11/12A from Lake Washington sediment. From the genome content, a versatile lifestyle is predicted but not one of bona fide methylotrophy. With the availability of its genomic sequence, Pseudomonas sp. 11/12A presents a prospective model for studying microbial communities in lake sediments.
Sequencing the genome of Janthinobacterium sp. RA13 from Lake Washington sediment is announced. From the genome content, a versatile life-style is predicted, but not bona fide methylotrophy. With the availability of its genomic sequence, Janthinobacterium sp. RA13 presents a prospective model for studying microbial communities in lake sediments.
We report sequencing the genomes of two new Flavobacterium strains isolated from Lake Washington sediment. From genomic contents, versatile lifestyles were predicted but not bona fide methylotrophy. With the availability of their genomic sequences, the new Flavobacterium strains present prospective models for studying microbial communities in lake sediments.
ABSTRACT The whole-genome sequences of eight fungal strains that were selected for exposure to microgravity at the International Space Station are presented here. These baseline sequences will help to understand the observed production of novel bioactive compounds.
ABSTRACT The genome sequences of Methylobacter marinus A45, Methylobacter sp. strain BBA5.1, and Methylomarinum vadi IT-4 were obtained. These aerobic methanotrophs are typical members of coastal and hydrothermal vent marine ecosystems.
Ten distinct isolates from the genus Pseudomonas were isolated in culture. The genomes of these isolates were sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq platform and assembled in order to provide insight into the metabolic and carbon-degrading potential of bacteria residing in soils at high latitudes.
A Gram-positive bacterium was isolated from the root of an eastern cottonwood tree ( Populus deltoides ) in Georgia and identified as a Tumebacillus species with 99% 16S rRNA nucleotide identity to Tumebacillus avium . The genome is 4.6 Mbp and encodes 4,072 proteins and 251 RNAs.
We present 49 metagenome assemblies of the microbiome associated with Sphagnum (peat moss) collected from ambient, artificially warmed, and geothermally warmed conditions across Europe. These data will enable further research regarding the impact of climate change on plant-microbe symbiosis, ecology, and ecosystem functioning of northern peatland ecosystems.
ABSTRACT Yarrowia lipolytica is an oleaginous yeast that produces high titers of fatty acid-derived biofuels and biochemicals. It can grow on hydrophobic carbon sources and lignocellulosic hydrolysates. The genome sequence of Y. lipolytica NRRL Y-64008 is reported to aid in its development as a biotechnological chassis for producing biofuels and bioproducts.
Cupriavidus necator DVZ60 was isolated from a sediment trap deployed in an 129I groundwater plume at the Hanford Site (Washington, United States). Genome sequencing of the strain led to the generation of 84 contigs and indicated that the genome is 7.552 Mb in size, with 66.2% GC content.
We report the genome sequence of a polyethylene-degrading bacterial strain identified as Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strain PE591, which was isolated from plastic debris found in savanna soil. The genome was assembled in 16 scaffolds with a length of 4,751,236 bp, a GC content of 66.5%, and 4,432 predicted genes.
Here, we report the genome sequence of Thermobifida halotolerans DSM 44931, a bacterium that was originally isolated from a salt mine in the Yunnan Province of China. This genome was sequenced using Pacific Biosciences sequencing technology and was assembled into 2 contigs in 2 scaffolds. It has a total length of 5,506,851 bp and a GC content of 71.16%. Functional annotation of this genome provides further metabolic insight into this species.
Enterobacter hormaechei DVZ29 was isolated from a sediment trap incubated in an 129 I plume at the Hanford Site (Washington State, USA). Whole genome sequencing of the strain resulted in 32 contigs and revealed that the genome is 4.90 Mb, with a G+C content of 55.61%.
Pseudomonas strains DVZ6 and DVZ24 were isolated from a sediment trap incubated in an 129 I plume at the Hanford Site (Washington State, USA). Whole-genome sequencing of the strains revealed that both genomes are 5.77 Mb in size, with a G + C content of 64.75%.
Haematococcus lacustris is a ubiquitous unicellular green alga with industrial bioproduct applications, namely, as feedstock for natural astaxanthin. We report the annotated 291.5 Mbp genome for H. lacustris Liv1 to support future algal research in the areas of carotenoid biosynthesis and crop protection.
Pseudenhygromyxa WMMC2535, a representative of the myxobacteria (family Nannocystaceae ), was isolated from a ragged sea hare in the Florida Keys, and its genome was sequenced using PacBio technology. The WMMC2535 genome sequence is the first of this genus and validates the notion that myxobacteria represent outstanding sources of structurally diverse natural products.
