Keyword(s):
We present here the genome sequence of Streptomyces canus ATCC 12647, a producer of the antibiotic telomycin, noted for its unique antibacterial activity against cardiolipin. Genomic analysis using the bioinformatics tool PRISM revealed the presence of multiple biosynthetic gene clusters, including those for telomycin and other natural products of potential pharmacological interest.
