Genome Sequence of Proteorhodopsin-Containing Sea Ice Bacterium Glaciecola punicea ACAM 611T

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Antarctic sea ice bacterium Glaciecola punicea ACAM 611T, the type species of the genus Glaciecola. A blue-light-absorbing proteorhodopsin gene is present in the 3.08-Mb genome. This genome sequence can facilitate the study of the physiological metabolism...

Description
Summary:Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Antarctic sea ice bacterium Glaciecola punicea ACAM 611T, the type species of the genus Glaciecola. A blue-light-absorbing proteorhodopsin gene is present in the 3.08-Mb genome. This genome sequence can facilitate the study of the physiological metabolisms and ecological roles of sea ice bacteria.
