Draft Genome Sequence of a New Methanobacterium Strain Potentially Resistant to Bile Salts, Isolated from Deer Feces.

ABSTRACT: We present the high-quality draft genome of Methanobacterium subterraneum DF, a hydrogenotrophic methanogen that was isolated from deer feces. This organism has potentially been overlooked in previous studies. Interestingly, its genome encoded bile salt hydrolase, a crucial enzyme for bile salt tolerance that is found in gut organisms.
