Whole-Genome Shotgun Assembly and Analysis of the Genome of Streptomyces mobaraensis DSM 40847, a Strain for Industrial Production of Microbial Transglutaminase

ABSTRACT Here, we report the draft annotated genome sequence of Streptomyces mobaraensis strain DSM 40847, which is used in industry to produce microbial transglutaminase. The genome sequence will allow for the characterization of the molecular mechanisms underlying the beneficial properties of this organism.
