[Background]With strong bacteriostatic activity,Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis N2-10 produces diverse hydrolases such as cellulase,thus showing huge potential in feed fermentation.[Objective]The whole genome of N2-10 was sequenced and the genes related to the synthesis of the secondary metabolites were analyzed.Based on comparative genomics,the difference between N2-10 and the model strain was dissected.The findings are expected to lay a theoretical basis for clarifying the bacteriostatic and probiotic mechanisms of this strain.[Methods]The genome of N2-10 was sequenced by Illumina NovaSeq and PacBioSequel,followed by genome assembly,gene prediction,and functional annotation.The differences between N2-10 and a model strain were analyzed by comparative genomics.[Results]The genome of N2-10 is 4036899 bp,with GC content of 43.88%.It has 4163 coding genes with the total length of 3594369 bp,and the total length of the coding region accounts for 89.1%of the total genome length.In detail,it has 85 tRNA genes,105S rRNA genes,1016S rRNA genes,1023S rRNA genes,2 CRISPR-Cas sequences,and 6 gene islands.Moreover,this strain was also found to have a prophage.In addition,3048,3177,3894,and 145 genes were annotated in GO(gene ontolog),COG(clusters of orthologous groups of proteins),KEGG(Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes),and CAZy(carbohydrate-active enzymes)databases,respectively.At the same time,10 gene clusters for the synthesis of secondary metabolites were predicted,including biosynthesis gene clusters rhizocticin A,bacillaene,fengycin,bacillibactin,subtilosin A,and bacilysin and 3 unknown gene clusters.Comparative genomics analysis showed that N2-10 had high homology with B.subtilis 168.[Conclusion]Through genome sequencing,we unveiled the genetic information of N2-10,providing a reference for further understanding the secondary metabolites of this stain and further development and utilization of it.
