Draft Genome Sequence of Actinobacterial Strain Kineosporia sp. R_H_3, a Neutrophilic Iron-Depositing Bacterium

Abstract

The draft genome sequence of a neutrophilic iron-depositing actinobacterial strain, Kineosporia sp. R_H_3, is reported here. Detailed analysis of the genome can elucidate the role of specific cytochromes for Fe oxidation and how this organism might receive energy from Fe oxidation. To date, this is the second publicly available genome sequence of a Kineosporia strain.
