Abstract
Moesziomyces antarcticus is a commercial strain that produces mannosylerythritol lipid that can be used as a microbial surfactant, in addition to lipase and xylan hydrolase. In this study, M. antarcticus KMA5 was isolated from rice sample collected in Chuncheon, South Korea. The genome sequence of M. antarcticus KMA5 was assembled into 26 chromosomes using the PacBio Sequel II platform. Moesziomyces antarcticus KMA5 contained 6,614 protein-coding genes and 207 CAZymerelated genes. In this study, the genome sequence of M. antarcticus was assembled at the chromosome level for the first time. The complete genome sequence of M. antarcticus KMA5 provides meaningful information of the genome of industrially important strain M. antarcticus.
