Abstract
Gordonia sp. strain 135 is a promising dibenzothiophene-desulfurizing and hydrocarbon-degrading bacterium. It can utilize dibenzothiophene as the sole sulfur source. The genome of strain 135 was completely sequenced; it consists of a 5,039,827-bp circular chromosome and a 164,963-bp circular plasmid.
Highlights
Gordonia bacteria encompass a rich reservoir of metabolic diversity, which makes them attractive candidates for crude oil bioremediation [1]
The Gordonia sp. 135 genome consists of a 5,039,827-bp circular chromosome (GC content, 67.44%) and a 164,963-bp circular plasmid, namely, pG135 (GC content, 64.58%)
Chromosome and plasmid circularization was specified by end overlapping
