Draft genome of novel Streptomyces sp. strain JW3 selected for its inhibition of other Streptomyces spp.
摘要
Despite decades of extensive investigation, Streptomyces species continue to represent a vast and rich reservoir of novel bioactive compounds. Accordingly, genome mining remains a powerful and strategic approach for the discovery of new candidate drugs. The objective of the present study is to generate a high-quality, assembled, and functionally annotated draft genome of a novel Streptomyces species, providing a robust genomic framework for downstream comparative and biosynthetic analyses.
Data descriptionHere, we report the first assembled and annotated draft genome of the novel soil-derived Streptomyces sp. strain JW3. High-throughput sequencing of Streptomyces sp. strain JW3 genome generated approximately 1.6 million reads, corresponding to a total of 465.4 million bases and an effective sequencing yield of 157.3 Mb. De novo assembly produced a draft genome of 8.3 Mb distributed across 341 contigs, with an N50 contig length of 52.1 kb. This genome constitutes a valuable genomic resource that will facilitate comparative analyses with other Streptomyces species. Such analyses are expected to advance our understanding of the genetic diversity, metabolic capacity, and biosynthetic potential of this genus.
