Abstract

Acinetobacter indicus strain UBT1 has shown efficient lipase (243 U ml−1) and biosurfactant (61.1% E24% emulsification and surface tension reduction to 37.7 mN m−1) production capabilities using agro-industrial waste as sole carbon source. We report here the draft genome sequence of A. indicus strain UBT1 having genome size of 2.97 Mb with 45.90% GC content. Total 2721 coding genes were predicted using National Center for Biotechnology Information-Prokaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline (NCBI-PGAP). The whole genome shotgun project sequence data are accessible through NCBI Gene Bank under accession no. JABFOI000000000. PGAP annotation revealed the presence of the triacylglycerol lipase, phospholipase etc., that circuitously confers the oil consumption competency to the strain UBT1. Rapid Annotation using the Subsystem Technology (RAST) server used for mapping the genes to the subsystem resulted in 278 subsystem with 30% subsystem coverage. The draft genome data can be used to exploit the A. indicus strain UBT1 for its advance biotechnological application and also for further comparative genomic studies.
