Bacillus subtilis ∆6 is a genome-reduced strain that was cured from six prophages and AT-rich islands. This strain is of great interest for biotechnological applications. Here, we announce the full-genome sequence of this strain. Interestingly, the conjugative element ICEBs1 has most likely undergone self-excision in B. subtilis ∆6.
枯草芽孢杆菌∆6是一种经过六个原噬菌体和富含AT的区域消除处理后的基因组精简菌株。该菌株在生物技术应用方面具有重大意义。在此,我们公布该菌株的全基因组序列。有趣的是,接合元件ICEBs1很可能在枯草芽孢杆菌∆6中经历了自我切除。
