Here, we report the draft genome of the Enterobacter cloacae strain amazonensis, a bacterium highly resistant to mercury that was isolated from a metal- and sewage-contaminated stream in Amazonas, Brazil. The exploration of the 5.0-Mb genome revealed 104 genes encoding resistance to toxic compounds and heavy metals, highlighting the potential biotechnological applications of this strain.

The development of new generation sequencing has significantly boosted the capacity to generate genomic data, thus increasing the demand to automated genomic analysis tools. After genome sequencing and assembly, genomic annotation is performed, a process that allows the extraction of relevant data from generated sequences, highlighting the identification of protein coding genes. In order to facilitate the expansion of offline analysis of genes for resistance to heavy metals of the species Enterobacter cloacae amazonensis, the software Genomic Annotation Analysis Software-GANAS was developed, which visually details the genes and metabolic subsystems annotated using the platform RAST. The annotated genes were analyzed by software comparing the results in several organisms with known resistance to heavy metals. It was found that strain has more resistance genes than the main patterns found in the literature, thus showing the efficiency of using GANAS.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
