Xiuying Li, Jingjing Wang, Huijuan Jin, Yiru Cui, Hao Zhong, Tongyue Zhou, Jun Yan

TL;DR
This paper reports the complete genome sequence of a new Dehalobacter strain that can dechlorinate chlorophenol compounds.
Contribution
The study provides the first complete genome of a Dehalobacter strain involved in chlorophenol dechlorination, including 40 reductive dehalogenase genes.
Findings
Strain CP belongs to the Dehalobacter genus and is part of a chlorophenol-dechlorinating consortium.
The genome contains a 2.94 Mb circular chromosome with a 44.5% G + C content.
It encodes 40 reductive dehalogenase homologous genes, suggesting a strong dechlorination capability.
Abstract
Strain CP, a novel member affiliated with the genus Dehalobacter, was identified in an anaerobic consortium capable of 4-chlorophenol-to-phenol reductive dechlorination. The complete genome of strain CP comprises a 2.94 Mb circular chromosome with a G + C content of 44.5% and encodes 40 reductive dehalogenase homologous genes.
