Complete genome sequence of the pyrene-degrading bacterium Cycloclasticus sp. strain P1

J Bacteriol. 2012 Dec;194(23):6677. doi: 10.1128/JB.01837-12.

Abstract

Cycloclasticus sp. strain P1 was isolated from deep-sea sediments of the Pacific Ocean and characterized as a unique bacterium in the degradation of pyrene, a four-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH). Here we report the complete genome of P1 and genes associated with PAH degradation.
