Complete genome sequence of Ilumatobacter coccineum YM 16-304

Ilumatobacter coccineum YM16-304 (=NBRC 103263) is a novel marine actinobacterium isolated from a sand sample collected at a beach in Shimane Prefecture, Japan. Strain YM16304 is the type strain of the species. Phylogenetically, strain YM16-304 is close to Ilumatobacter nonamiense YM16-303 (=NBRC 109120), Ilumatobacter fluminis YM22-133 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. The 4,830,181 bp chromosome was predicted to encode a total of 4,291 protein-coding genes.
