Abstract

The complete genome sequence of a novel halophilic archaeon, Salinarchaeum sp. strain HArcht-Bsk1(T), was determined using next-generation sequencing. The genome comprises a 3,255,260-bp circular chromosome with a G+C content of 66.7%. Automatic annotation of the genome revealed a single rRNA operon, 45 tRNAs, and 3,013 protein-coding gene sequences.
