Project description:Ilumatobacter coccineum YM16-304(T) (=NBRC 103263(T)) is a novel marine actinobacterium isolated from a sand sample collected at a beach in Shimane Prefecture, Japan. Strain YM16-304(T) is the type strain of the species. Phylogenetically, strain YM16-304(T) is close to Ilumatobacter nonamiense YM16-303(T) (=NBRC 109120(T)), Ilumatobacter fluminis YM22-133(T) and some uncultured bacteria including putative marine sponge symbionts. Whole genome sequence of these species has not been reported. Here we report the complete genome sequence of strain YM16-304(T). The 4,830,181 bp chromosome was predicted to encode a total of 4,291 protein-coding genes.
