Abstract

We report the draft genome sequence of Sporobolomyces phaffii RJAF-17, a basidiomycetous yeast strain producing lipoamino acid surfactants, N-palmitoyl leucine and N-parmitoleyl glutamine. The annotation and classification of protein-coding genes provided the basic information for the genome of strain RJAF-17, including prediction of abundant genes as well as detection of genes involved in the biosynthesis of lipoamino acids. With the molecular importance of lipoamino acids as promising alternatives to chemical surfactants, the genomic information of strain RJAF-17 can help us understand the role of biomolecules in yeasts and explore possibilities of large-scale synthesis for industrial applications.
