Abstract
Lau . 2005 is the sole member of the monospecific genus in the family a poorly characterized family at the genome level thus far. This family comprises seven genera within the class . Family members are known to be psychrotolerant, rod-shaped and orange pigmented (β-carotene), typical for . For growth, seawater and complex organic nutrients are necessary. The genome of UST20020801 is only the second genome of a member of the family whose sequence has been deciphered. Here we describe the features of this organism, together with the complete genome sequence and annotation. The 4,000,057 bp long chromosome with its 3,518 protein-coding and 45 RNA genes is a part of the project.
