Bacteria belonging to the genus  Aneurinibacillus  within the family  Paenibacillaceae  are Gram-positive, endospore-forming, and rod-shaped bacteria inhabiting diverse environments. Currently, there are eight validly described species of  Aneurinibacillus ; however, several unclassified species have also been reported.  Aneurinibacillus  spp. have shown the potential for producing secondary metabolites (SMs) and demonstrated diverse types of enzyme activities. These features make them promising candidates with industrial implications. At present, genomes of 9 unique species from the genus  Aneurinibacillus  are available, which can be utilized to decipher invaluable information on their biosynthetic potential as well as enzyme activities. In this work, we performed the comparative genome analyses of nine  Aneurinibacillus  species representing the first such comprehensive study of this genus at the genome level. We focused on discovering the biosynthetic, biodegradation, and heavy metal resistance potential of this under-investigated genus. The results indicate that the genomes of  Aneurinibacillus  contain SM-producing regions with diverse bioactivities, including antimicrobial and antiviral activities. Several carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) and genes involved in heavy metal resistance were also identified. Additionally, a broad range of enzyme classes were also identified in the  Aneurinibacillus  pan-genomes, making this group of bacteria potential candidates for future investigations with industrial applications.
