Annotation of the

kytococcus sedentarius

genome from DNA coordinates 1060198 to 1066421

ytococcus sedentarius

is a gram-positive, free-living,

non-motile and strictly aerobic organism. It is originally

isolated from marine environment and occurs in tetrads.

Kytococcus sedentarius

belongs to a poorly studied family

of Dermacoccaceae and has a high GC content of 72%.

Studying about

Kytococcus sedentarius

is important as it is an

opportunistic pathogen causing pitted keratolysis, endocarditis

and hemorrhagic pneumonia.

Kytococcus sedentarius

also

produces antibiotics known as oligoketides(Sims et al., 2009).

Ksed_RS13525, Ksed_RS13530, Ksed_RS05075, Ksed_RS05080,

Ksed_RS05085, Ksed_RS05090, Ksed_RS05095.GENI-ACT was

used to annotate the sequences. Basic information module,

sequence based similarity data, structure based similarity,

cellular localization data, alternate open reading frame,

enzymatic function, duplication and degradation, horizontal

gene transfer, RNA.Three of the given genes (

Kytococcus

sedentarius

_RS13525, Ksed_RS13530, Ksed_RS05090) were

annotated by the computer as hypothetical proteins and

require further research. The rest of the four genes appeared to

be correctly annotated in the computer database.

Kytococcus

sedentarius

_RS05095 has a strong evidence of horizontal gene

transfer.
