Abstract
Marinobacterium aestuarii ST58-10T was identified as a benzene-degrading aerobic bacterium isolated from estuarine sediment in the Republic of Korea. The genome of strain ST58-10T was found to be composed of a single circular chromosome (5,191,608 bp) with a G+C content of 58.78% and harboring 4,473 protein-coding genes. The assembled sequence data will help elucidate potential metabolic pathways and mechanisms responsible for the hydrocarbon-degrading ability of M. aestuarii ST58-10T.
Highlights
Marinobacterium aestuarii ST58-10T was identified as a benzene-degrading aerobic bacterium isolated from estuarine sediment in the Republic of Korea
Marinobacterium aestuarii ST58-10T was deposited at the Korean Collection for Type Cultures (KCTC 52193T) and Biological Resource Center, National Institute of Technology and Evaluation (NBRC 112103T)
M. aestuarii ST58-10T shows benzene-degrading activity of up to 70%, which was first observed within reported Marinobacterium species (2)
Summary
Marinobacterium aestuarii ST58-10T was identified as a benzene-degrading aerobic bacterium isolated from estuarine sediment in the Republic of Korea. As a result of the final assembly, a single contig with an N50 value of 5,191,608 bp was generated, with coverage of 154ϫ and 58.78% GϩC content.
