Abstract

We report the 9.7-Mb genome sequence of Streptomyces sp. strain F001, isolated from a marine sediment sample from Raja Ampat, Indonesia. F001 produces diazaquinomycins, which exhibit potent and selective antituberculosis activity. In addition, it is also known to produce akashin A, a blue pigment that has shown cytotoxic activity.
