Abstract

Pseudenhygromyxa WMMC2535, a representative of the myxobacteria (family Nannocystaceae), was isolated from a ragged sea hare in the Florida Keys, and its genome was sequenced using PacBio technology. The WMMC2535 genome sequence is the first of this genus and validates the notion that myxobacteria represent outstanding sources of structurally diverse natural products.
