Psychrobacter sp. TAE2020 Genome sequencing and assembly. Psychrobacter sp. TAE2020

Biosurfactants are considered a possible green alternative to chemical surfactants for countless commercial products including detergents and cleaners, personal care products, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and therapeutics, food additives, emulsifiers, and dispersants for bioremediation. Organisms from extreme environments are well-adapted to the harsh conditions and represent an exciting avenue of discovery of naturally occurring biosurfactants. In this study, we report the genome analysis of Psychrobacter sp. TAE2020, an aerobic gamma-proteobacterium isolated from an Antarctic coastal seawater sample collected in the vicinity of the French Antarctic station Dumont d'Urville
