Abstract
Paecilomyces hepiali is an endoparasitic fungus that commonly exists in the natural Cordyceps sinensis. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of P. hepiali, which will facilitate the exploitation of medicinal compounds produced by the fungus.

Summary
Paecilomyces hepiali is an endoparasitic fungus that commonly exists in the natural Cordyceps sinensis anamorph stage. C. sinensis has been described as an exotic medicinal mushroom in traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicine [1]. Data from the pure compounds are the most revealing in determining the effects of the fungus [2]. The chemical constituents isolated from C. sinensis include cordycepin (3=-deoxyadenosine) and its derivatives [3].
