Abstract
The draft genome sequence of Thermoanaerobacter sp. strain A7A was reconstructed from a metagenome of a microbial consortium obtained from the Tuna oil field in the Gippsland Basin, Australia. The organism is a strict anaerobe that is predicted to ferment a range of simple sugars and undertake sulfur reduction.
Highlights
The draft genome sequence of Thermoanaerobacter sp. strain A7A was reconstructed from a metagenome of a microbial consortium obtained from the Tuna oil field in the Gippsland Basin, Australia
In 2011, fluid samples were collected from the A7A oil well in the Tuna oil field (38°10=S, 148°25=E) in the Gippsland Basin, Australia
One liter of formation water was filtered through a 0.2-M polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) filter disc and subjected to genomic DNA extraction using a Meta-G-Nome DNA isolation kit (Epicenter Biotechnologies)
Summary
The draft genome sequence of Thermoanaerobacter sp. strain A7A was reconstructed from a metagenome of a microbial consortium obtained from the Tuna oil field in the Gippsland Basin, Australia. In 2011, fluid samples were collected from the A7A oil well in the Tuna oil field (38°10=S, 148°25=E) in the Gippsland Basin, Australia. One liter of formation water was filtered through a 0.2-M polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) filter disc and subjected to genomic DNA extraction using a Meta-G-Nome DNA isolation kit (Epicenter Biotechnologies). A genome was separated from the metagenome and assembled using the procedure described by Sutcliffe et al (2013) [1].
