Draft genome sequence of an Acinetobacter albensis strain from untreated wastewater

We report the isolation and draft genome sequence of an Acinetobacter albensis strain C1-4G isolated from untreated wastewater from the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine in Liverpool, UK. The 3.0 Mb genome contained several genes encoding alkane and aromatic hydrocarbon degrading enzymes, a qacJ antimicrobial resistance gene and several mobile genetic elements including a putative transposon, Tn 7860 , containing arsenic resistance genes. In addition, analysis of the biosynthetic gene clusters suggested the presence of genes that could enable the biosynthesis of baumannoferrin, a cyanobactin-type natural product, as well as a novel beta-lactone natural product.
