The northern sea otter inhabits coastal waters of the northern Pacific Ocean and is the largest member of the Mustelidae family. DNA sequencing methods that utilize microfluidic partitioned and non-partitioned library construction were used to establish the sea otter genome. The final assembly provided 2.426 Gbp of highly contiguous assembled genomic sequences with a scaffold N50 length of over 38 Mbp. We generated transcriptome data derived from a lymphoma to aid in the determination of functional elements. The assembled genome sequence and underlying sequence data are available at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) under the BioProject accession number PRJNA388419.
北海獭栖息于北太平洋的沿海水域，是鼬科家族中体型最大的成员。利用微流控分区和非分区文库构建的DNA测序方法来构建海獭基因组。最终组装得到了2.426 Gbp的高度连续组装基因组序列，支架N50长度超过38 Mbp。我们从淋巴瘤中生成了转录组数据，以帮助确定功能元件。组装好的基因组序列和基础序列数据可在国家生物技术信息中心（NCBI）获取，生物项目登录号为PRJNA388419。
