Abstract
We report the 5.8-Mb genome sequence of Rhodococcus triatomae BKS 15-14, isolated from an ant hill soil sample, collected from Bhitarkanika Mangrove Reserve Forest, Odisha, India. The draft genome of strain BKS 15-14 consists of 5,824,349 bp, with a G+C content of 69%, 5,387 protein-coding genes, and 57 RNAs.
Highlights
We report the 5.8-Mb genome sequence of Rhodococcus triatomae BKS 15-14, isolated from an ant hill soil sample, collected from Bhitarkanika Mangrove Reserve Forest, Odisha, India
Strain BKS 15-14 is capable of producing cholesterol oxidase, which degrades cholesterol into 4-cholesten-3-one
Rapid Annotations using Subsystems Technology (RAST) annotation shows that strain BKS 15-14 contains the genes coding for glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, the pentose phosphate pathway, trehalose biosynthesis, a fatty acid metabolic cluster, and glycerolipid and glycerophospholipid metabolism in bacteria
Summary
We report the 5.8-Mb genome sequence of Rhodococcus triatomae BKS 15-14, isolated from an ant hill soil sample, collected from Bhitarkanika Mangrove Reserve Forest, Odisha, India. Members of the Rhodococcus genus are well known for their significant ability to degrade numerous xenobiotic compounds. Rhodococcus triatomae was first reported by A.
