Genome Sequence of the Oleaginous Yeast Yarrowia lipolytica H222

Abstract

Here, we report the genome sequence of the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica H222. De novo genome assembly shows three main chromosomal rearrangements compared to that of strain E150/CLIB122. Here, we report the genome sequence of the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica H222. De novo genome assembly shows three main chromosomal rearrangements compared to that of strain E150/CLIB122. This genomic resource will help integrate intraspecies diversity into synthetic biology projects that utilize Yarrowia as a biotechnological chassis for value-added chemical productions.
