Complete genome sequence of Klebsiella oxytoca M1, isolated from Manripo area of South Korea

•We isolated the M1 strain from Manripo area in South Korea.•The M1 strain can increase the level of 2,3-butanediol in the genome.•We carried out whole-genome sequencing, then found 4 genes those are involved in the production of 2,3-butanediol.•The complete genome of M1 is composed of a circular chromosome of 5,865,090bp. Here we report the full genome sequence of Klesiella oxytoca M1, isolated from Manripo area of South Korea. The strain K. oxytoca M1 is able to produce either 2,3-butanediol or acetoin selectively by controlling the pH and temperature.
