TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequence of a bacteria strain that can break down chloromethane into formate and acetate.
Contribution
The study provides the complete genome sequence of a novel chloromethane-degrading anaerobic bacterium.
Findings
Strain JHJ has a 2.2 Mbp circular chromosome with 52.5% G + C content.
The genome encodes an incomplete Wood-Ljungdahl pathway and 52 putative methyltransferases.
Abstract
Oscillospiraceae bacterium strain JHJ, an anerobe isolated from estuarine sediment, degrades chloromethane to formate and acetate. The genome of strain JHJ consists of a 2.2 Mbp circular chromosome with a G + C content of 52.5% and encodes an incomplete Wood-Ljungdahl pathway and 52 putative methyltransferases.
