The halophilic archaeon Haloterrigena salifodinae BOL5-1 was isolated from a Bolivian salt mine and sequenced using single-molecule real-time sequencing. The GC-rich genome was 5.1 Mbp, with a 4.2-Mbp chromosome and 5 plasmids ranging from 96 to 281 kbp. The genome annotation was incorporated into HaloWeb (https://halo.umbc.edu), and the methylation patterns were incorporated into REBASE (http://tools.neb.com/genomes/view.php?seq_id=99167&list=1).
