Clostridium sulfidigenes 113A is a strictly anaerobic, rod shaped, gram positive bacterium isolated from sub-seafloor sediments associated with methane hydrates. Here, we report the first draft genome of C. sulfidigenes strain 113A, which comprises 3,717,420 bp in 96 contigs with the G+C content of 30.1%. A total of 3148 protein coding sequences were predicted. The genome annotation revealed that 113A could play an important role in biogeochemical cycles and have potential biotechnological applications such as production of organic acids and butanol.
硫化梭菌113A是一种严格厌氧、杆状、革兰氏阳性细菌,从与甲烷水合物相关的海底沉积物中分离得到。在此,我们报告了硫化梭菌菌株113A的首个基因组草图,其由96个重叠群组成,共3,717,420 bp,G+C含量为30.1%。共预测出3148个蛋白质编码序列。基因组注释显示,113A在生物地球化学循环中可能发挥重要作用,并具有生产有机酸和丁醇等潜在生物技术应用。
