Genome description of a potentially new species of Streptomyces isolated from the Indian Sundarbans mangrove

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: A potentially new species of Streptomyces was isolated from station 177 of the Sundarbans Seasonal Time Series in Indian Sundarbans mangrove. The isolate was cultured from sediment sample on TYS medium of salinity 15. Sequencing and annotation of the 16S rRNA showed 100% identity against S. laurentii NPS17 against GenBank/ENA/DDBJ. Annotation of the whole genome against GTDB database showed closest identity with S. terrae SKN60 and belong to the same clade as S. roseicoloratus TRM44457T and S. laurentii ATCC 31255. The genome is about 7.2 Mb and has a G+C % of 73%. The average amino acid identity (AAI) was 85.01% with S. roseicoloratus and 80.34% with S. roseolus. Genome assembly of S. sp. SBR177 reflected the presence of all essential genes including those of housekeeping and secondary metabolite production.
