Abstract

The draft genome sequence of a ristocetin-producing Amycolatopsis strain (sp. MJM2582) isolated in South Korea is reported here. This strain has a genome of approximately 8.9 Mb containing 7,933 predicted genes, including the ristocetin cluster and 32 additional predicted secondary metabolite biosynthesis clusters.
