Abstract
Cupriavidus basilensis 4G11 was isolated from groundwater at the Oak Ridge Field Research Center (FRC) site. Here, we report the complete genome sequence and annotation of Cupriavidus basilensis 4G11. The genome contains 8,421,483 bp, 7,661 predicted protein-coding genes, and a total GC content of 64.4%.
Highlights
Cupriavidus basilensis 4G11 was isolated from groundwater at the Oak Ridge Field Research Center (FRC) site
Cupriavidus species are Gram-negative betaproteobacteria that are known for their diverse metabolic capabilities (1–6)
Heavymetal resistance is a typical characteristic of Cupriavidus strains; previously sequenced Cupriavidus species such as C. metallidurans, C. eutrophus, C. pinatubonensis, C. taiwanensis, and Cupriavidus sp. strain BIS7 encode a number of putative proteins involved in heavy-metal resistance and biodegradation activities (1–3, 5, 7–14)
Summary
Cupriavidus basilensis 4G11 was isolated from groundwater at the Oak Ridge Field Research Center (FRC) site. Cupriavidus species (previously known as Wautersia or Ralstonia) are Gram-negative betaproteobacteria that are known for their diverse metabolic capabilities (1–6). Heavymetal resistance is a typical characteristic of Cupriavidus strains; previously sequenced Cupriavidus species such as C. metallidurans, C. eutrophus, C. pinatubonensis, C. taiwanensis, and Cupriavidus sp.
