Abstract

We report here the draft genome sequence of Tolypothrix campylonemoides VB511288, isolated from building facades in Santiniketan, India. The members of this genus produce several compounds of commercial importance. The draft assembly is 10,627,177 bases in 135 scaffolds, and it contains 7,886 protein-coding genes, 994 pseudogenes, 18 rRNA genes, and 76 tRNA genes.
