Abstract

Janibacter indicus YB324, a gram-positive, aerobic and non-motile actinobacterium isolated from south Atlantic sediment at a depth of 2875 m. The complete genome sequence of the strain YB324 was obtained using PacBio Sequel HGAP.4 and comprised of 3,369,845 base pairs with a 71.3 mol% G + C content, 3225 protein-coding genes, 53 RNAs. In silico analysis confirmed the genes associated with polysaccharide hydrolyzation, nitrite reduction, and phenol degradation. Multiple natural product biosynthesis gene clusters were identified as well. The complete genome sequence will provide insight into the potential use of this strain in biotechnological and natural product biosynthesis applications.
