| Abstract |
Pectic oligosaccharides, which are considered to be potential prebiotics, may be generated by pectin-degrading enzymes. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the pectin-degrading marine bacterium, Flavobacteriaceae bacterium GSB9, which was isolated from seawater of South Korea. The complete genome sequence revealed that the chromosome was 3,630,376 bp in size, had a G + C content of 36.6 mol%, and was predicted to encode 3100 protein-coding sequences (CDSs), 40 tRNAs, and six 16S-23S-5S rRNAs. Genome sequence analysis revealed that this strain possesses multiple genes predicted to encode pectin-degrading enzymes. Our analysis may facilitate the future application of this strain against pectin in various industries.
