A Paenibacillus elgii strain isolated from soil samples from Cerrado, Brazil, showed antimicrobial activity. Its genome sequence was acquired (GS20 FLX Titanium 454 platform) and comprises 108 contigs ( N 50 , 198,427 bp) and 6,810 predicted sequences. Here, we shed some light on the antimicrobial genes of the strain, including a nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) module identified as part of a pelgipeptin gene cluster.
