Complete genome sequence of Pseudoalteromonas piscicida strain DE2-B, a bacterium with broad inhibitory activity toward human and fish pathogens

Abstract

Pseudoalteromonas piscicida strain DE2-B is a halophilic bacterium which has broad inhibitory activity toward vibrios and other human and fish pathogens. We report the first closed genome sequence for this species, which consists of two chromosomes (4,128,210 and 1,188,838 bp). Annotation revealed multiple genes encoding proteases with potential antibacterial properties.
