Complete genome sequence of strain KD-1 T , the type strain of Sulfurisphaera javensis , isolated from an Indonesian hot spring

Abstract

Sulfurisphaera javensis KD-1(T), originally isolated from an Indonesian acidic hot spring, is a hyperthermophilic, acidophilic, and facultatively anaerobic archaeon. Here, we report the 2.6 Mb complete genome sequence of KD-1(T). Genes related to sulfur metabolism were found in the genome, indicating that KD-1(T) is involved in the sulfur cycle in its habitat.
