Abstract
Clostridium acetobutylicum is an organism involved in the production of acetone and butanol by traditional acetone-butanol-ethanol fermentation (ABE). We report the draft genome sequence of C. acetobutylicum strain GXAS18-1, which can produce ABE directly from cassava flour.
Highlights
Clostridium acetobutylicum is an organism involved in the production of acetone and butanol by traditional acetone-butanolethanol fermentation (ABE)
Potential coding sequences (CDSs) were predicted using RAST [4], and the assignment of protein functions was performed by searching against the GenBank and Pfam [5] databases using BLASTp [6], while single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified using MUMmer 3.06 [7]
Wholegenome SNP scan revealed that 50,702 SNP loci, which were identified in the C. acetobutylicum GXAS18-1 genome
Summary
Clostridium acetobutylicum is an organism involved in the production of acetone and butanol by traditional acetone-butanolethanol fermentation (ABE). Clostridium acetobutylicum is one group of Clostridium strains that is generally used to produce acetone and butanol through traditional acetone-butanol-ethanol fermentation (ABE) [1]. The industrial application of Clostridium acetobutylicum strains for high-performance solvent yields and their extreme tolerance for butanol still require more investigation.
