Abstract

Here we report the full genome sequence of Bacillus pumilus W3, which was isolated from raw gallnut honey in Nandan County, Guangxi Province of China, showing high CotA-laccase activity. The W3 strain contains 3,745,123bp with GC content of 41.39%, and contains 3695 protein-coding genes, 21 rRNAs and 70 tRNAs.

Keywords: Bacillus pumilus; CotA-laccase; Genome.
