Abstract:
We report here the 4.092-Mb high-quality draft genome assembly of a newly isolated poly-γ-glutamic acid-producing strain, Bacillus subtilis Ia1a. The genome sequence is considered a critical tool to facilitate the engineering of improved production strains. Exopolysaccharides and many industrially important enzymes can be produced by this new strain utilizing different carbon sources.
