Abstract
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Geobacillus thermoleovorans strain B23, which was isolated from a deep subterranean petroleum reservoir in Japan. An array of genes related to unique long-chain alkane degradation pathways in G. thermoleovorans B23 has been identified by whole-genome analyses of this strain.
Highlights
We report the draft genome sequence of Geobacillus thermoleovorans strain B23, which was isolated from a deep subterranean petroleum reservoir in Japan
The assembled B23 draft genome sequence was annotated by using the xBASE bacterial genome annotation service and MiGAP microbial genome annotation pipeline
The draft genome sequence of G. thermoleovorans B23 is available in DDBJ/EMBL/ GenBank under the accession numbers BATY01000001 through BATY01000209
Summary
We report the draft genome sequence of Geobacillus thermoleovorans strain B23, which was isolated from a deep subterranean petroleum reservoir in Japan. Geobacillus thermoleovorans strain B23, was previously isolated from production water at a 2,150-meter depth (105°C) of a subterranean petroleum reservoir in Niigata, Japan [1]. B23 can degrade a broad range of alkanes (C11 to C32) at 70°C by the terminal oxidation pathway.
