Abstract

Porphyrobacter dokdonensis strain DSW-74, isolated from seawater off of Dokdo, Republic of Korea, is a member of the family Erythrobacteraceae In this study, the genome sequence of DSW-74 was determined using the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform and assembled into 11 contigs. Its genome is approximately 3.0 Mb with a G+C content of 64.8%, in which 2,875 protein-coding sequences and 47 RNA genes were predicted.
