Whole-Genome Sequence of Aquamicrobium sp. Strain SK-2, a Polychlorinated Biphenyl-Utilizing Bacterium Isolated from Sewage Sludge

Here, we report the whole-genome sequence of Aquamicrobium sp. strain SK-2, a bacterium which can use 2,2′,4,4′,5,5′-hexachlorobiphenyl as the sole carbon source for its growth. An approximately 9.23-Mb genome sequence of SK-2 will greatly facilitate research efforts regarding the study of the polyc...

Sumario:Here, we report the whole-genome sequence of Aquamicrobium sp. strain SK-2, a bacterium which can use 2,2′,4,4′,5,5′-hexachlorobiphenyl as the sole carbon source for its growth. An approximately 9.23-Mb genome sequence of SK-2 will greatly facilitate research efforts regarding the study of the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) degradation mechanism.
