Here, we report the draft genome of the strain amazonensis, a bacterium highly resistant to mercury that was isolated from a metal- and sewage-contaminated stream in Amazonas, Brazil. The exploration of the 5.0-Mb genome revealed 104 genes encoding resistance to toxic compounds and heavy metals, highlighting the potential biotechnological applications of this strain.
在此,我们报告了亚马逊菌株的基因组草图,该菌株是一种对汞具有高度抗性的细菌,从巴西亚马逊州一条受金属和污水污染的溪流中分离得到。对这个5.0兆碱基的基因组进行探索后发现,有104个基因编码对有毒化合物和重金属的抗性,凸显了该菌株潜在的生物技术应用价值。
