Abstract
We report the draft whole-genome sequence of Alteromonas sp. strain RKMC-009, which was isolated in situ from the sponge Xestospongia muta in San Salvador, The Bahamas, using an isolation chip (ichip). Automated biosynthetic gene cluster analysis using antiSMASH 4.0 predicted the presence of 22 biosynthetic gene clusters.
Highlights
We report the draft whole-genome sequence of Alteromonas sp. strain RKMC-009, which was isolated in situ from the sponge Xestospongia muta in San Salvador, The Bahamas, using an isolation chip
The type strain most closely related to RKMC-009 based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis (1,543 bp; nucleotides 32656 to 34198) using the EzBioCloud tool is Alteromonas aestuariivivens JDTF-113 (GenBank accession number KY497472), with 98.15% sequence similarity [6]
A whole-genome average nucleotide identity comparison between RKMC-009 and 11 closely related Alteromonas sp. genomes using JSpeciesWS indicated that the highest identity was to Alteromonas confluentis KCTC 42603T (75.65%) [7]
Summary
We report the draft whole-genome sequence of Alteromonas sp. strain RKMC-009, which was isolated in situ from the sponge Xestospongia muta in San Salvador, The Bahamas, using an isolation chip (ichip). RRNAs, and 60 tRNAs for the chromosome and 67 CDSs and no RNAs for the plasmid [5]. The type strain most closely related to RKMC-009 based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis (1,543 bp; nucleotides 32656 to 34198) using the EzBioCloud tool is Alteromonas aestuariivivens JDTF-113 (GenBank accession number KY497472), with 98.15% sequence similarity [6].
