Genome Sequence of an Oligohaline Hyperthermophilic Archaeon Thermococcus zilligii AN1 Isolated from a Terrestrial Geothermal Freshwater Spring

摘要

Thermococcus zilligii, a thermophilic anaerobe in freshwater, is useful for physiological research and biotechnological applications. Here we report the high-quality draft genome sequence of T. zilligii AN1^T. The genome contains a number of genes for an immune system and adaptation to a microbial biomass-rich environment as well as hydrogenase genes.
