Taxonomic Characterization, Whole-Genome Sequencing, and Cosmetic Potential of <i>Lysinibacillus</i> sp. JNUCC 51 Isolated from Baengnokdam Crater Lake, Mt. Halla.

ABSTRACT: A novel bacterial strain, Lysinibacillus sp. JNUCC 51, was isolated from volcanic soil collected at Baengnokdam Crater Lake, Mt. Halla, Jeju Island, Republic of Korea. Phylogenetic, ANI (88.76%), and dDDH (70.4%) analyses indicated that the strain represents a distinct genomic lineage closely related to L. xylanilyticus. The complete genome (5.12 Mb; 37% G+C) encoded 4912 genes, including ten biosynthetic gene clusters (NRPS, β-lactone, RiPP, terpene, and T3PKS types), suggesting strong metabolic versatility. Cells were Gram-positive rods (1.5-3.0 × 0.5-0.7 µm) growing at pH 4.0-9.0 and up to 5% NaCl. Chemotaxonomic profiles revealed iso-C₁₅:₀, iso-C₁₇:₀, and iso-C₁₆:₀ as dominant fatty acids; MK-6/MK-7 as majo
