Draft genome sequence data of Gordonia hongkongensis strain EUFUS-Z928 isolated from the octocoral Eunicea fusca.

ABSTRACT: Octocorals are among the most prolific sources of biologically active compounds. A significant part of their specialized metabolites richness is linked to the abundance of their associated microbiota. Consequently, research on the bioprospecting potential of microorganisms associated with these marine invertebrates has gained much interest. Here, we describe the draft genome of Gordonia hongkongensis strain EUFUS-Z928 isolated from the octocoral Eunicea fusca. The genome was assembled de novo from short-read whole-genome sequencing data. Additionally, functional annotation of predicted genes was performed using the RAST tool kit, including genome mining for specialized metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters using the antiSMASH v6.0 tool. The genome sequence data of G
