Dataset on CRISPR/Cas9 system targeting hydrogenase genes in Rhodobacter johrii MAY2 isolate.

This dataset contains the gene sequences of the small and large sub-unit of the hydrogenase enzyme obtained from the annotated genome of Rhodobacter johrii MAY2. The whole genome sequence of the isolate was performed using SEED genome viewer on the Rapid Annotation using the Subsystem Technology (RAST) platform. Concurrently, guide RNA sequences and primers were meticulously crafted using the CHOPCHOP v.3.0 web tool, specifically designed for the precise editing and amplification of the target genes. The primers were optimized via gradient PCR to determine appropriate amplification conditions. Furthermore, the guide RNA was tested via in-vitro cleavage assay, gauging its efficacy in cleaving the intended target genes. The dataset, including the optimization and the cleavage assay, was deposited in Mendeley Data with DOI no: 10.17632/rcx3mcssnx.2.

Draft Genome Sequence of Bacillus lehensis M136, Isolated from the Manleluag Hyperalkaline Spring in Pangasinan, Philippines.

Here, we report the draft whole-genome sequence of Bacillus lehensis M136, isolated from a hyperalkaline spring located in Pangasinan, Philippines. From 24 scaffolds, the total genome assembly length is 3,985,437 bp. Industrially important genes like cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) and proteases were detected in this draft genome.
