Abstract
Bacillus subtilis strain QH-1, a chromium-reducing bacterial strain, was isolated from a soil sample from a chromium-containing slag heap. The draft genome sequence of this bacterium is 4,034,036 bp in length, with a G+C content of 43.71%, and it is predicted to contain 4,082 protein-coding genes.
Highlights
Bacillus subtilis strain QH-1, a chromium-reducing bacterial strain, was isolated from a soil sample from a chromiumcontaining slag heap
Bacillus subtilis is a model Gram-positive bacterium. It is one of the most important groups of industrial microorganisms and is used in several fermentative production processes due to its capacity to secrete large amounts of industrial enzymes (1); these enzymes are able to degrade a variety of substrates

Summary
Bacillus subtilis strain QH-1, a chromium-reducing bacterial strain, was isolated from a soil sample from a chromiumcontaining slag heap. Bacillus subtilis is a model Gram-positive bacterium. It is one of the most important groups of industrial microorganisms and is used in several fermentative production processes due to its capacity to secrete large amounts of industrial enzymes (such as amylases and proteases) (1); these enzymes are able to degrade a variety of substrates.
