Abstract
Lysinibacillus sp. WB86 was isolated from a cold seep in the South China Sea, and its complete genome was sequenced using Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT). The genome consists of a single circular chromosome spanning 4,537,071 bp, with a G + C content of 37 %. FastANI analysis revealed a 99.38 % average nucleotide identity (ANI) with Lysinibacillus sphaericus A1, confirming its classification as a strain of L. sphaericus. Genome annotation identified 4397 protein-coding genes, along with 111 tRNAs and 34 rRNAs. Functional categorization using the COG database assigned 84.6 % of the protein-coding genes to specific roles, with the majority involved in transcription, amino acid transport and metabolism, translation and ribosomal biogenesis, and replication, recombination, and repair. Additionally, antiSMASH-based analysis uncovered eight biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), only one of which exhibited high similarity (>50 %) to known BGCs. This cluster was predicted to encode novel antimicrobial lanthipeptides, suggesting potential biotechnological applications.
期刊介绍:
The journal publishes papers on all functional and evolutionary aspects of genes, chromatin, chromosomes and (meta)genomes of marine (and freshwater) organisms. It deals with new genome-enabled insights into the broader framework of environmental science. Topics within the scope of this journal include:
• Population genomics and ecology
• Evolutionary and developmental genomics
• Comparative genomics
• Metagenomics
• Environmental genomics
• Systems biology
More specific topics include: geographic and phylogenomic characterization of aquatic organisms, metabolic capacities and pathways of organisms and communities, biogeochemical cycles, genomics and integrative approaches applied to microbial ecology including (meta)transcriptomics and (meta)proteomics, tracking of infectious diseases, environmental stress, global climate change and ecosystem modelling.
