Title Complete Genome Sequence of the Thermophilic Polychlorinated Biphenyl Degrader Geobacillus sp. Strain JF8 (NBRC 109937).
Journal Genome Announc
Abstract Geobacillus sp. strain JF8 (NBRC 109937) utilizes biphenyl and naphthalene as sole carbon sources and degrades polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) at 60°C. Here, we report the complete nucleotide sequence of the JF8 genome (a 3,446,630-bp chromosome and a 39,678-bp plasmid). JF8 has the smallest genome among the known PCB degraders.
