Complete genome sequence of Burkholderia pyrrocinia 2327^T, the first industrial bacterium which produced antifungal antibiotic pyrrolnitrin

Burkholderia pyrrocinia 2327^T (=DSM 10685^T, having an origin history as a strain Fujisawa Pharm 2327^T from Fujisawa Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) is the first industrial bacterium for the isolation of antifungal antibiotic pyrrolnitrin. Herein, we present the first complete genome sequence of strain 2327^T, which consists of three circular chromosomes with one plasmid for the total 7,961,346bp sized genome with a GC content of 66.5%. This information will provide better understanding of molecular mechanisms in strain 2327^T, leading the insight of whole-cell system for the practical application of strain with the virtue of antibiotic capacity.
