Abstract

ABSTRACTHere, we report the complete genome sequence of Tessaracoccus sp. strain T2.5-30, which consists of a chromosome with 3.2 Mbp, 70.4% G+C content, and 3,005 coding DNA sequences. The strain was isolated from a rock core retrieved at a depth of 139.5 m in the subsurface of the Iberian Pyritic Belt (Spain).

Highlights

We report the complete genome sequence of Tessaracoccus sp. strain T2.5-30, which consists of a chromosome with 3.2 Mbp, 70.4% GϩC content, and 3,005 coding DNA sequences
Tessaracoccus sp. strain T2.5-30 was isolated from a core sample from 139.5 m in the subsurface of the Iberian Pyritic Belt (IPB, Peña de Hierro, Spain)
Genomic DNA was submitted to the Norwegian Sequencing Centre (University of Oslo, Norway) for PacBio single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing [13]

Summary

Introduction

We report the complete genome sequence of Tessaracoccus sp. strain T2.5-30, which consists of a chromosome with 3.2 Mbp, 70.4% GϩC content, and 3,005 coding DNA sequences. Strain T2.5-30 was isolated from a core sample from 139.5 m in the subsurface of the Iberian Pyritic Belt (IPB, Peña de Hierro, Spain). The IPB is characterized as one of the largest sulfide ore deposits known [11]. For whole-genome sequencing, DNA was extracted using a centyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-based extraction method [12].
