Draft Genome Sequence of the Most Traditional ε-Poly-l-Lysine Producer, Streptomyces albulus NBRC14147.

ABSTRACT

The genus Streptomyces is known for its secondary metabolite biosynthetic capacities. We report here the draft genome sequence of the most extensively studied ε-poly-l-lysine producer, Streptomyces albulus NBRC14147. Bioinformatic analysis of the 9.6-Mb chromosome identified a large number of secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters.
