Abstract
Bacillus sp. CCB-MMP212 is a Gram-positive bacterium isolated from mangrove sediment in Matang Perak, Malaysia (4.85496°E, 100.73495°N). Genome sequencing was performed using the Oxford Nanopore and Illumina platforms. The assembled genome was annotated using the rapid annotation subsystem technology server (RAST) (rast.nmpdr.org). The genome size of the Bacillus sp. CCB-MMP212 was 6,151,644 base pairs (bp) with a G+C content of 34.75%. The genome includes 6,311 coding sequences and 58 RNAs. The sequence has been deposited at Genbank with the accession number of JALDQE000000000. Interestingly, an arsenic resistance (ars) operon consisted of arsenic resistance operon repressor (arsR), ACR3 family arsenite efflux transporter (arsB), and arsenate reductase (arsC) genes were found in the genome. In addition, the arsenic inducible gene (arsI), which encoded a dioxygenase with C•As lyase activity, was also found in the ars operon. The enzyme is crucial for the methylation of methylarsonous acid [MAs(III)] and trivalent roxarsone [Rox(III)]. This dataset reveals the genetic ability of this strain in arsenic resistance. To the best of our knowledge, the arsI encoding C•As lyase is rarely reported within the genus Bacillus. Therefore, the dataset presented in this manuscript provides further insight into the arsenic resistance mechanisms of the genus Bacillus.
Description
