The draft genome sequence of Bacillus sp. VKPM B-3276, a mesophilic, gram-positive bacterium, isolated from dead Culex pipiens larvae is presented. This strain was deposited in the Russian National Collection of Industrial Microorganisms as a prospective candidate for development of new entomopathogenic agents. The genome of Bacillus sp. VKPM B-3276 was 6,126,346 bp in length with predicted completeness of 99.43%. Genome analysis identified 6518 protein-coding sequences and 111 RNAs genes. 13% (271) of the protein-coding genes were assigned to “Carbohydrates” subsystem category, according to RAST/SEED. Among them about 50 enzymes, responsible for chitin, peptidoglycan and related molecules decomposition, were found. The draft genome of strain VKPM B-3276 was deposited at DBJ/EMBL/GenBank under the accession nos. RZHM00000000, PRJNA511803 and SAMN10644103 for Genome, Bioproject and Biosample, respectively.
