Draft genome sequence of marine streptomyces sp. strain W007: Which produces angucyclinone antibiotics with a benz[a]anthracene: Skeleton

Abstract

A series of angucyclinone antibiotics have been isolated from marine Streptomyces sp. strain W007 and identified. Here, a draft genome sequence of Streptomyces sp. W007 is presented. The genome contains an intact biosynthetic gene cluster for angucyclinone antibiotics, which provides insight into the combinatorial biosynthesis of angucyclinone antibiotics produced by marine streptomycetes. © 2012, American Society for Microbiology.
