ABSTRACT We present the genome of Salinisphaera shabanensis , isolated from a brine-seawater interface and representing a new order within the Gammaproteobacteria . Its adaptations to physicochemical and nutrient availability fluctuations include six genes encoding heavy metal-translocating P-type ATPases and multiple genes involved in iron uptake, siderophore production, and poly-β-hydroxybutyrate synthesis.
