We announce a 4.63-Mb genome assembly of an isolated bacterium that is the first sequenced nicotine-degrading Arthrobacter strain. Nicotine catabolism genes of the nicotine-degrading plasmid pAO1 were predicted, but plasmid function genes were not found. These results will help to better illustrate the molecular mechanism of nicotine degradation by Arthrobacter.
我们宣布完成了一株孤立细菌的 4.63Mb 基因组组装,这是首个测序的尼古丁降解节杆菌菌株。预测了尼古丁降解质粒 pAO1 的尼古丁代谢基因,但未发现质粒功能基因。这些结果将有助于更好地阐明节杆菌尼古丁降解的分子机制。
