Draft genome sequence dataset of Actinoalloteichus caeruleus strain 372 isolated from saline soil in Kazakhstan: genomic features and predicted biosynthetic gene clusters

Abstract

This article presents the draft genome sequence of Actinoalloteichus caeruleus strain 372, isolated from saline soil in Kazakhstan. Whole-genome sequencing was performed using the Illumina platform, followed by de novo assembly with SPAdes. Genome quality assessment using CheckM indicated 99.25% completeness with no detectable contamination. The draft genome is 6.18 Mb in size and contains 5,024 predicted protein-coding genes, 47 tRNA genes, and 22 CRISPR arrays. Average nucleotide identity (ANI) analysis showed 96.27% identity to the closest publicly available A. caeruleus genome. Biosynthetic gene cluster (BGCs) analysis using antiSMASH v8.0.4 identified 31 predicted clusters, including NRPS, PKS, NRPS–PKS hybrids, terpenes, and RiPPs. These data expand the genomic resources available for the genus Actinoalloteichus.
