Abstract:
We describe a promising shrimp probiotic candidate Bacillus subtilis SS17, which was isolated from the intestine of a healthy tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon. The de novo assembly resulted in an estimated chromosome size of 4,042,212 bases and 4,215 CDS. The genome sequence information will help exploit the probiotic potential of the strain.

Genomic DNA in Prokaryotes
44.8K
The genome of most prokaryotic organisms consists of double-stranded DNA organized into one circular chromosome in a region of cytoplasm called the nucleoid. The chromosome is tightly wound, or supercoiled, for efficient storage. Prokaryotes also contain other circular pieces of DNA called plasmids. These plasmids are smaller than the chromosome and often carry genes that confer adaptive functions, such as antibiotic resistance.

DNA Bacteriophages

Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that specifically infect bacteria, utilizing their genetic material to hijack host cellular machinery for replication. DNA bacteriophages employ single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) or double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genomes. These phages exhibit diverse replication strategies and host interactions, influencing their ecological roles and applications in biotechnology and medicine.ssDNA BacteriophagesssDNA phages, with their small genomes, utilize unique strategies to...
