Strain P40 (MCCC 1A01128) is a member of Alcanivorax xenomutans, in the family Alcanivoracaceae of Gammaproteobacteria. Since Alcanivorax species play a pivotal role in bioremediation of oil spills in marine environments, further studies on these hydrocarbonoclastic marine bacteria will facilitate a better understanding of their alkane metabolic capacities. Previous study shows strain P40 has obvious ability of alkane degradation. Here, we describe the complete genome sequence and annotation of strain P40, which is the first strain with the complete genome sequence of the species A. xenomutans. Strain P40 contains a 4,733,951 bp chromosome without any plasmids, and encodes 4148 protein-coding genes and 45 RNA-only encoding genes. With genes involving in alkane degradation, heavy-metal resistance, stress response and so on, A. xenomutans P40 may have a potential use in the bioremediation of oil polluted and heavy metal-contaminated environments.
