Genome of the marine bacterium<i> Cobetia marina</i> KMM 296 isolated from the mussel <i>Crenomytilus grayanus</i> (Dunker, 1853)
We determined de novo the whole genome sequence of the marine bacterium Cobetia marina KMM 296 isolated from the mussel Crenomytilus grayanus inhabiting the Sea of Japan. The genome version of the lifestyle of this marine bacterium provides alternative metabolic pathways that are characteristic of the inhabitants of the rhizospheres of terrestrial plants, as well as deep-sea ecological communities. The genome of C. marina KMM 296 contains genes involved in the metabolism and transport of nitrogen, sulfur, iron, and phosphorus. C. marina KMM 296 is a promising source of unique psychrophilic enzymes and essential secondary metabolites.
