Abstract:
Bacillus sp. strain TM2, an aerobic Gram-positive bacterium, was isolated from a solution of ground Tetragnatha maxillosa spider in saline solution in Japan. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of this bacterium, which has a 3.67-Mbp genome containing 3,702 protein-coding sequences, 24 rRNA-coding sequences, and 81 tRNA-coding sequences.
