Abstract

The complete genome sequence of Streptomyces fulvissimus (DSM 40593), consisting of a linear chromosome with a size of 7.9Mbp, is reported. Preliminary data indicates that the chromosome of S. fulvissimus contains 32 putative gene clusters involved in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, two of them showing very high similarity to the valinomycin and nonactin biosynthetic clusters. The availability of genome sequence of S. fulvissimus will contribute to the evaluation of the full biosynthetical potential of streptomycetes.
