First Insight into the Genome Sequence of Clostridium thermobutyricum DSM 4928, a Butyrate-Producing Moderate Thermophile

The moderately thermophilic and Gram-positive bacterium Clostridium thermobutyricum is strictly anaerobic and forms subterminally located endospores. It was isolated from horse manure compost. C. thermobutyricum produces butyrate as the main fermentation product. The draft genome consists of one cir...

Sumario:The moderately thermophilic and Gram-positive bacterium Clostridium thermobutyricum is strictly anaerobic and forms subterminally located endospores. It was isolated from horse manure compost. C. thermobutyricum produces butyrate as the main fermentation product. The draft genome consists of one circular chromosome (3.425 Mb) and contains 3,201 predicted protein-coding genes.
