The industrially important thermophile
Geobacillus thermoglucosidasius
has the potential to produce chemicals and fuels from biomass-derived sugar feedstocks. Here, we present the genome sequence of strain NCIMB 11955, the progenitor of an ethanologenic industrial strain, revealing 11 single-nucleotide polymorphisms and 2 indels compared to strain DSM 2542 and two novel plasmids.
Streptococcus thermophilus is one of the most used dairy starters for the production of yogurt and cheese. We report here the complete genome sequence of the industrial strain S. thermophilus N4L, which is used in dairy technology for its fast-acidifying phenotype.
Streptomyces clavuligerus
strain F613-1 is an industrial strain with high-yield clavulanic acid production. In this study, the complete genome sequence of
S. clavuligerus
strain F613-1 was determined, including one linear chromosome and one linear plasmid, carrying numerous sets of genes involving in the biosynthesis of clavulanic acid.
We report the complete genome sequence of the purple photosynthetic bacterium
Blastochloris viridis
belonging to α-
Proteobacteria
. This is the first completed genome sequence of a phototroph producing bacteriochlorophyll
b
. The genome information will be useful for further analysis of the photosynthetic energy conversion system and bacteriochlorophyll pigment biosynthesis.
