Genome Sequence of the Radiation-Resistant Bacterium Deinococcus radiophilus ATCC 27603<sup>T</sup>.
Microbiology resource announcements 20190725 30
The pigmented bacterium <i>Deinococcus radiophilus</i>, which is highly resistant to radiation exposure, was first isolated from irradiated lizardfish. We report a genome assembly of <i>D. radiophilus</i> UWO 1055<sup>T</sup> (=ATCC 27603<sup>T</sup>), with a predicted genome size of 2.7 Mbp (62.66% G+C content). A number of CRISPR-associated proteins and two CRISPR arrays were identified. ...[more]
