Abstract
Strain HIMB100 is a planktonic marine bacterium in the class Alphaproteobacteria. This strain is of interest because it is one of the first known isolates from a globally ubiquitous clade of marine bacteria known as SAR116 within the family Rhodospirillaceae. Here we describe preliminary features of the organism, together with the draft genome sequence and annotation. This is the second genome sequence of a member of the SAR116 clade. The 2,458,945 bp genome contains 2,334 protein-coding and 42 RNA genes.

Funding
We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, which funded sequencing of this genome. Annotation was performed as part of the 2010 Summer Course in Microbial Oceanography (http://cmore.soest.hawaii.edu/summercourse/2010/ and Technology (SOEST), and the Center for Microbial Oceanography: Research and Education (C-MORE), a National Science Foundation-funded Science and Technology Center (award No. EF0424599). This is SOEST contribution 8364 and HIMB contribution 1459.
