Deinococcus sp. ME38 Genome sequencing. Deinococcus sp. ME38

We report the complete genome of the extremophilic bacteria Deinococcus sp. strain ME38, which was isolated from sediment of a Lake the Parque Nacional Lagunas de Montebello. This genome consists of 4,397,810 bp and 4,474 coding sequences, with 69.3% G+C content. Whole-genome sequencing was performed to explore the bioremediation potential in aquatic ecosystems.
