Draft Genome Sequence of Tomitella biformata AHU 1821 T , Isolated from a Permafrost Ice Wedge in Alaska

ABSTRACT Tomitella biformata AHU 1821 T was isolated and cultured from a permafrost ice wedge, aged presumably about 25,000 years, in the Fox permafrost tunnel (64.952°N 147.617°W), Alaska. These genome data provide the basis for investigating T. biformata AHU 1821 T , identified as a long-term surv...

Description
Summary:ABSTRACT Tomitella biformata AHU 1821 T was isolated and cultured from a permafrost ice wedge, aged presumably about 25,000 years, in the Fox permafrost tunnel (64.952°N 147.617°W), Alaska. These genome data provide the basis for investigating T. biformata AHU 1821 T , identified as a long-term survivor of the extremely cold and closed environment.
