Complete genome sequence of a carbon monoxide-utilizing acetogen, Eubacterium limosum KIST612.

ABSTRACT: Eubacterium limosum KIST612 is an anaerobic acetogenic bacterium that uses CO as the sole carbon/energy source and produces acetate, butyrate, and ethanol. To evaluate its potential as a syngas microbial catalyst, we have sequenced the complete 4.3-Mb genome of E. limosum KIST612.
