Abstract
We report the first genome sequence for Arthrobacter siccitolerans 4J27, a newly described desiccation-tolerant species. The complete genome of A. siccitolerans 4J27 has been sequenced and is estimated to be around 5.3 Mb in size, with an average GC content of 65.13%. We predict 4,480 protein-coding sequences (CDSs).
Highlights
We report the first genome sequence for Arthrobacter siccitolerans 4J27, a newly described desiccation-tolerant species
We have reported the production of trehalose, glucose, and glutamine at relative concentrations of 5.8:2.8:1 as a xeroprotectant designated S4J27-D [2]
The assembly resulted in 64 contigs, 50 of which were larger than 500 bp
Summary
We report the first genome sequence for Arthrobacter siccitolerans 4J27, a newly described desiccation-tolerant species. Arthrobacter siccitolerans 4J27 is a highly desiccation-tolerant new species [2, 3]. Many desiccation-tolerant microorganisms produce xeroprotectants to protect themselves against damage caused by drought [4,5,6,7,8,9,10] and other stressors [11]. We have reported the production of trehalose, glucose, and glutamine at relative concentrations of 5.8:2.8:1 as a xeroprotectant designated S4J27-D [2].
