Genome Sequence of Rickettsia tamurae, a Recently Detected Human Pathogen in Japan

Rickettsia tamurae is a member of the spotted fever group rickettsiae, which was reported in 2011 to cause human infections in Japan. We report the draft genome sequence of R. tamurae strain AT-1(T), isolated from Amblyomma testudinarium ticks.
