Abstract

A Gram-negative, non-motile and short-rod shaped and gamma-radiation-resistant bacterium Deinococcus soli N5T, isolated from a rice field soil in South Korea. The complete genome of D. soli N5T consists of a chromosome (3,236,984bp). The key enzymes for the central DNA repair mechanisms were present in the genome. The enzyme coding genes has been identified which is involving in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway. The gene cluster in the genome sequence suggest that the D. soli N5T use (NER) pathways for efficient removal of pyrimidine dimers that are the most abundant type of UV- induced damage.
