Genome sequences of seven Streptomyces isolates for genome prospecting

Key Points

• To provide genome sequences of seven Streptomyces isolates for the discovery of new antibiotics and bioactive compounds.
• Sequenced genomes of seven Streptomyces isolates from the Leibniz Institute DSMZ culture collection.
• Identified more than 20 predicted biosynthetic gene clusters in each isolate.
• Each of the seven isolates contains over 20 biosynthetic gene clusters.
• These gene clusters may facilitate the discovery of novel antibiotics and bioactive products.
