Abstract
Streptomyces collinus Tü 365 (DSMZ 40733), isolated from Kouroussa (Guinea), is the producer of the elfamycin family antibiotic kirromycin, which inhibits bacterial protein biosynthesis by interfering with elongation factor EF-Tu. Here, we report on the Streptomyces collinus Tü 365 complete genome sequence of the 8.27 MB chromosome and the two plasmids SCO1 and SCO2.
