Zusammenfassung:	<jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title> <jats:p> <jats:named-content xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" content-type="genus-species" xlink:type="simple">Exiguobacterium antarcticum</jats:named-content> is a psychotropic bacterium isolated for the first time from microbial mats of Lake Fryxell in Antarctica. Many organisms of the genus <jats:named-content xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" content-type="genus-species" xlink:type="simple">Exiguobacterium</jats:named-content> are extremophiles and have properties of biotechnological interest, e.g., the capacity to adapt to cold, which make this genus a target for discovering new enzymes, such as lipases and proteases, in addition to improving our understanding of the mechanisms of adaptation and survival at low temperatures. This study presents the genome of <jats:named-content xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" content-type="genus-species" xlink:type="simple">E. antarcticum</jats:named-content> B7, isolated from a biofilm sample of Ginger Lake on King George Island, Antarctic peninsula. </jats:p>
