Abstract
I report here the genome sequences of a Bacillus paranthracis strain isolated from book page surface. The presented data show a new study field for this species, which is frequently encountered in several environment, including soil, rhizosphere and notably human samples. I provide some insights about genomic content of Bacillus paranthracis, for example the presence of multiple antibiotic resistance genes, genes for polyhydroxybutyrate metabolism, 120 genes related to stress resistance and pathogenicity-related genes such as phospholipase C, metalloprotease and a cluster for non-hemolytic enterotoxin. In vitro tests showed that this isolate has motility, ability to produce biofilm, cytotoxic and enterotoxic ability, which makes this isolate a potential pathogen.
