Abstract

We report here the draft genome sequence of Streptomyces sp. strain AM-2504, a microorganism producing a broad range of biotechnologically relevant molecules. The comparative analysis of its 16S rRNA sequence allowed the assignment of this strain to the Streptomyces kasugaensis species, thus fostering functional characterization of the secondary metabolites produced by this microorganism.
