T A yellow-colored, circular, convex, rod-shaped baterial strain Im, 2007). Strain Gsoil 636 is Gram-negative-bacterium, rod- T designated Flavisolibacter ginsenosidimutans Gsoil 636 was shaped, non-motile, non-spore-forming, yellow-pigmented and isolated from soil of a ginseng cultivation field in Pocheon T is allocated to the family . Within the genus Province, South Korea. Gsoil 636 showed the ability to con- Flavisolibacter, the genomic DNA G + C content range is from vert Rb1 (one of the dominant active components of ginseng) to 42.7 to 46.4 mol%. Based on recent studies, this genus consists F2, and its whole genome was sequenced. The whole genome T of Flavisolibacter ginsenosidimutans Gsoil 636 consist of a of four with validly published names and isolated from single circular chromosome of 5,079,621 bp, with 48.9% G + C various sources such as soil and water: Flavisolibacter gin- content. Of the 4,338 predicted genes, 4,251 were protein- sengiterrae, Flavisolibacter ginsengisoli (Yoon and Im, 2007), cording genes, 46 were RNAs, and 41 were pseudogenes. Using Flavisolibacter rigui (Baik et al., 2014), and Flavisolibacter T the complete genome sequence of the strain Gsoil 636 , we tropicus (Lee et al., 2016). identified several glycoside hydrolase-encoding genes that A ginsenoside transforming-positive, Gram-negative bacte- may be involved in the conversion of major ginsenosides into T rium, Flavisolibacter ginsenosidimutans Gsoil 636 , were minor ginsenosides and unexpectedly found antibiotic bio- synthesis-encoding genes and excinuclease genes. isolated from soil of a ginseng cultivation field in Pocheon Province, South Korea. Based on the transform from major Keywords: Flavisolibacter ginsenosidimutans, complete genome, ginsenosides to minor ginsenosides (Zhao et al., 2015), F. ginseng soil, glycoside hydrolase, PacBio RS II T ginsenosidimutans Gsoil 636 was chosed for a whole genome study to identify the target functional genes. Whole genome The genus Flavisolibacter was first proposed by (Yoon and sequence analysis showed more than 70 glycoside hydrolases that could be involved in the conversion of ginsenosides.
