ABSTRACT Reported here is the complete genome sequence (2,191,724 bp) for the thermoacidophilic archaeon Sulfuracidifex (f . Sulfolobus ) metallicus DSM 6482 (T opt 65°C, pH opt 2.0). This obligately chemolithoautotrophic microorganism is a prolific metal and sulfur oxidizer and has application in metal bioleaching operations. A multi-assembly reconciliation approach enabled closure of the genome.
