TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequences of two bacteria that work with other microbes to break down short-chain fatty acids.
Contribution
The study provides new genome sequences for two Syntrophomonas erecta subspecies involved in syntrophic degradation of fatty acids.
Findings
The genomes of Syntrophomonas erecta GB4-38T and Syntrophomonas erecta subsp. sporosyntropha 5-3-ZT were sequenced.
These bacteria degrade C4-C8 fatty acids in co-culture with hydrogen-consuming microbes.
Abstract
We report the genome sequences of two syntrophic gram-negative bacteria, Syntrophomonas erecta GB4-38T and Syntrophomonas erecta subsp. sporosyntropha 5-3-ZT, which degrade C4-C8 short-chain fatty acids when grown in co-culture with a suitable hydrogen-consuming microbial strain.
