Abstract
We determined the complete genome sequence of Thalassococcus sp. strain S3, a marine carbazole degrader isolated from Tokyo Bay in Japan that carries genes for aerobic anoxygenic phototrophy. Strain S3 has a 4.7-Mb chromosome that harbors the carbazole-degradative gene cluster and three (96-, 63-, and 46-kb) plasmids.

We determined the complete genome sequence of Thalassococcus sp. strain S3, a marine carbazole degrader isolated from Tokyo Bay in Japan that carries genes for aerobic anoxygenic phototrophy
FinishChecker 2.0 was used with the mate pair (MP) data to find and correct assembly errors by detecting 21-mers that are absent in the reads but present in the finished sequences and by searching for abnormal distance distributions of mapped MP reads [13]
Gene annotation was done using PGAP [14] and MiGAP [15], and the annotated sequences were checked for inconsistencies in the identification of start/stop codons between both annotation pipelines using the CompareSequences tool of GenomeMatcher 2.203 [16]
