Complete Genome Sequence of a Novel Sulfolobales Archaeon Strain, HS-7, Isolated from the Unzen Hot Spring in Japan.

The order Sulfolobales includes thermoacidophilic archaea that thrive in acidic geothermal environments. A novel Sulfolobales archaeon strain, HS-7, which may represent a novel genus, was isolated from an acidic hot spring in Japan. We report the 2.15-Mb complete genome sequence of strain HS-7.
