Genome sequence of facultatively anaerobic marine bacterium Maribacter thermophilus strain HT7-2(T).
Maribacter thermophilus strain HT7-2(T), isolated from Ulva prolifera collected from the intertidal zone of Qingdao sea area, China. To date, M. thermophilus strain HT7-2(T) is the only one which has been found that has a relatively higher optimum temperature compared to other Maribacter species and it is also the first strain to be described that is facultatively anaerobic while other identified strains within genus Maribacter are strictly aerobic. Meanwhile, M. thermophilus strain HT7-2(T) harbors several coding genes related to heavy metal resistance and to antibiotics, which increase the robustness of the strain. Here, we report the genome sequence and annotation of M. thermophilus strain HT7-2(T), which comprises 4,050,606 bp with G+C content of 38.93%. A total of 3585 protein coding genes, 41 tRNAs and 6rRNAs were obtained. The genome annotation may provide basic information on some special traits and pathways in this strain.
