Abstract
ABSTRACTBacillus sp. strain UFRGS-B20 was isolated in 2012 from Brazilian land-farming soil contaminated with petrochemical oily sludge. This strain was subjected to hydrocarbon biodegradation tests, showing degradation rates of up to 60%. Here, we present the 6.82-Mb draft genome sequence of the strain, which contains 2,178 proteins with functional assignments.

Bacillus sp. strain UFRGS-B20 was isolated in 2012 from Brazilian landfarming soil contaminated with petrochemical oily sludge
Bacillus sp. strain UFRGS-B20 contains genes encoding enzymes related to 17 pathways of xenobiotic biodegradation and metabolism, including hydrolase aldolase (AI-2) LsrF, succinate dehydrogenase, 3-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A (3-hydroxyacyl-CoA) dehydrogenase, methyltransferases, alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenases, and hydrolases involved in naphthalene, anthracene, and 1- and 2-methylnaphthalene degradation; (S)-2-haloacid dehalogenase, cytochrome P450 102A3, monooxygenases, acid and alkaline phosphatases, acetamidases, nitric oxide synthase oxygenase, and oxygen-insensitive NAD(P)H nitroreductase; and 3-ketoacylCoA thiolase, N-acetyltransferase, ureases, allophanate hydrolase, gluconolactonase, and enoyl-CoA hydratases
