RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Certain Bacillus species play a vital role in polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production. However, most of these isolates did not properly identify to species level when scientifically had been reported. RESULTS: From NGS analysis, 5719 genes were predicted in the de novo genome assembly. Based on genome annotation using RAST server, 5,527,513 bp sequences were predicted with 5679 bp number of protein-coding sequence. Its genome sequence contains 35.1% and 156 GC content and contigs, respectively. In RAST server analysis, subsystem (43%) and non-subsystem coverage (57%) were generated. Ortho Venn comparative genome analysis indicated that Bacillus sp. BNPI-92 shared 2930 gene cluster (core gene) with B. cereus ATCC 14579 T (AE016877), B. paranthracis Mn5T (MACE01000012), B. thuringiensis ATCC 10792 T (ACNF01000156), and B. antrics Amen T (AE016879) strains. For our strain, the maximum gene cluster (190) was shared with B. cereus ATCC 14579 T (AE016877). For Ortho Venn pair wise analysis, the maximum overlapping gene clusters thresholds have been detected between Bacillus s p.BNPI-92 and Ba. cereus ATCC 14579 T (5414). Average nucleotide identity (ANI) such as OriginalANI and OrthoANI, in silicon digital DND-DNA hybridization (isDDH), Type (Strain) Genome Server (TYGS), and Genome-Genome Distance Calculator (GGDC) were more essentially related Bacillus sp. BNPI-92 with B. cereus ATCC 14579 T strain. Therefore, based on the combination of RAST annotation, OrthoVenn server, ANI and isDDH result Bacillus sp.BNPI-92 strain was strongly confirmed to be a B. cereus type strain. It was designated as B. cereus BNPI-92 strain. In B. cereus BNPI-92 strain whole genome sequence, PHA biosynthesis encoding genes such as phaP, phaQ, phaR (PHA synthesis repressor phaR gene sequence), phaB/phbB, and phaC were predicted on the same operon. These gene clusters were designated as phaPQRBC. However, phaA was located on other operons. CONCLUSIONS: This newly obtained isolate was found to be new a strain based on comparative genomic analysis and it was also observed as a potential candidate for PHA biosynthesis.
