The genome of Streptomyces sp. strain BR123, isolated from rhizospheric soil that exhibited promising antimicrobial properties, was sequenced and assembled. Here, we report an 8,157,040-bp genome sequence with a G+C content of 72.63%. This genome sequence enlightens the genes responsible for the production of secondary metabolites and antimicrobial compounds by this strain.
