Whole Genome Analysis and Assessment of the Metabolic Potential of Gordonia rubripertincta Strain 112, a Degrader of Aromatic and Aliphatic Compounds.

ABSTRACT: The application of Gordonia strains in biotechnologies of environmental purification as degraders of pollutants of different chemical structures is an interesting research topic. The strain Gordonia rubripertincta 112 (IEGM112) is capable of utilizing diesel fuel, alkanes, and aromatic compounds. The aim of this work was to study the potential of G. rubripertincta 112 as a degrader of aromatic and aliphatic compounds and analyze its complete genome in comparison with other known G. rubripertincta strains. The genome had a total length of 5.28 Mb and contained 4861 genes in total, of which 4799 were coding sequences (CDS). The genome contained 62 RNA genes in total, of which 50 were tRNAs, three were ncRNAs, and nine were rRNAs. The strain bears plasmid elements
