We report a draft genome sequence of Mycobacterium bovis strain SP38, isolated from the lungs of a cow in Brazil. The assembly of reads resulted in 36 contigs in a total of approximately 4.37 Mb. Comparison of M. bovis strains sequenced to date will aid in understanding bovine tuberculosis in Brazil.
