Genome sequence of Anoxybacillus ayderensis AB04 T isolated from the Ayder hot spring in Turkey

摘要

Species of Anoxybacillus are thermophiles and, therefore, their enzymes are suitable for many biotechnological applications. Anoxybacillus ayderensis AB04 supT/sup (= NCIMB 13972 supT/sup =?NCCB 100050 supT/sup ) was isolated from the Ayder hot spring in Rize, Turkey, and is one of the earliest described Anoxybacillus type strains. The present work reports the cellular features of A. ayderensis AB04 supT/sup , together with a high-quality draft genome sequence and its annotation. The genome is 2,832,347?bp long (74 contigs) and contains 2,895 protein-coding sequences and 103 RNA genes including 14 rRNAs, 88 tRNAs, and 1 tmRNA. Based on the genome annotation of strain AB04 supT/sup , we identified genes encoding various glycoside hydrolases that are important for carbohydrate-related industries, which we compared with those of other, sequenced Anoxybacillus spp. Insights into under-explored industrially applicable enzymes and the possible applications of strain AB04 supT/sup were also described.
