High-quality-draft genome sequence of the multiple heavy metal resistant bacterium Pseudaminobacter manganicus JH-7^T.

ABSTRACT: Pseudaminobacter manganicus JH-7^T (= KCTC 52258^T = CCTCC AB 2016107^T) is a Gram-staining-negative, aerobic and non-motile strain that was isolated from a manganese mine. The strain JH-7^T shows multiple heavy metal resistance and can effectively remove Mn²⁺ and Cd²⁺. In addition, it is able to produce exopolysaccharides (EPS), which may contribute to metal remove/adsorption. Thus, strain JH-7^T shows a great potential in bioremediation of heavy metal-contaminated environment. In this study, we report the draft genomic sequence of P. manganicus JH-7^T and compare it to related genomes. Strain JH-7^T has a 4,842,937 bp genome size with a G + C content of 61.2%, containing 4504
