Abstract

Here, we report the complete genome sequence characteristics of Legionella strain TUM19329, a candidate for a novel psychrotolerant species isolated from Antarctic lake sediment. The genome assembly contains a single 3,750,805-bp contig with a G+C content of 39.1% and is predicted to encode 3,538 proteins.
