Abstract
Bacillus cereus strain A1 is a newly isolated hydrogen producer capable of utilizing bioresources and biowaste, such as starch and starch wastewater. Here, we present a 5.67-Mb assembly of the genome sequence of strain A1, which may provide insights into the molecular mechanism of hydrogen production from bioresources and biowaste.
Highlights
Bacillus cereus strain A1 is a newly isolated hydrogen producer capable of utilizing bioresources and biowaste, such as starch and starch wastewater
Bacillus cereus strain A1 is a facultative anaerobe isolated from the activated sludge of an anaerobic digestion reactor
In addition to glucose and unhydrolyzed starch, strain A1 utilizes biowastes such as starch wastewater to produce H2
Summary
Bacillus cereus strain A1 is a newly isolated hydrogen producer capable of utilizing bioresources and biowaste, such as starch and starch wastewater. Various types of biomass have been used for H2 production via biological processes [1, 3]. Corn and cassava starches are abundantly available in China, as well as the wastewater from the starch manufacturing process [4, 5]. Large numbers of organisms, in both pure and mixed cultures, have been widely studied for H2 production from biomass [1, 6,7,8], H2 producers using unhydrolyzed starch directly are rare [4, 9].
