Abstract Bacillus subtilis BS16045 was isolated from Gochujang, a Korean red chili paste, in order to get a starter strain that can be used for preservation of the fermented foods. We report the whole genome sequence of B. subtilis BS16045, which contains 4,165,121 bp with a G+C content of 43.6%. We also confirmed the set of antibiotic genes producing surfactin, kanosamine, bacillaene, plipastatin, subtilosin A, and bacilysin, which are related to antifungal and antibacterial activities. These results indicate that B. subtilis BS16045 could be a potential starter strain for solving contamination by food-borne pathogens in the soybean products factory.
