Draft genome sequence of Geobacillus sp. LEMMY01, a thermophilic bacterium isolated from the site of a burning grass pile

Abstract

We report here the 3,586,065-bp draft genome of Geobacillus sp. LEMMY01, which was isolated (axenic culture) from a thermophilic chemolitoautotrophic consortium obtained from the site of a burning grass pile. The genome contains biosynthetic gene clusters coding for secondary metabolites, such as terpene and lantipeptide, confirming the biotechnological potential of this strain.
