Abstract
A mutanase (α-1,3 glucanase)-producing bacterial strain of Paracoccus mutanolyticus was isolated from soil samples rich in cellulosic waste. Here, we report the whole-genome sequencing and annotation of P. mutanolyticus, which has a genome size of around 3.5 Mb and the potential to degrade water-insoluble α-1,3 glucans with an overall G+C content of 67.4%.
