Draft genome sequence data of sp. strain Be9 isolated from uranium-mill tailings porewaters.

are Gram-positive, nonspore-forming, rod-shaped bacteria inhabiting a wide range of environments including soil, water, dairy products, other living organisms, etc. sp. strain Be9, isolated from mill tailings porewaters in France, shows a remarkable behavior in presence of uranium under distinct conditions, which is the main reason for the interest in sequencing its genome. In this work, we describe the draft genome sequence of Be9, comprising 4,046,806 bp, with a G+C content of 68.10% and containing 3,947 protein-coding sequences. The preliminary genome annotation analysis identified some genes encoding for resistance to antibiotics and toxic compounds like heavy metals. This draft genome has been deposited at DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under the accession PRJNA590666.
