Genome sequence of Rhodococcus sp. strain PML026, a trehalolipid biosurfactant producer and biodegrader of oil and alkanes

Abstract

Rhodococcus sp. strain PML026 produces an array of trehalolipid biosurfactant compounds in order to utilize hydrophobic carbon sources, such as oils and alkanes. Here, we report the high-quality draft genome sequence of this strain, which has a total length of 5,168,404 bp containing 4,835 protein-coding sequences, 12 rRNAs, and 45 tRNAs.
