Draft Genome Sequence of the Polychlorinated Biphenyl Degrader Comamonas testosteroni Strain YAZ2, Isolated from a Natural Landscape in the Tohoku Region of Japan.

ABSTRACT: We report a draft genome sequence of Comamonas testosteroni strain YAZ2, a polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) degrader that was isolated from a PCB-unpolluted environment. The assembled genome contains a single 5.4-Mb chromosome and an 87-kb plasmid. The bph gene cluster, which is involved in PCB degradation, was found on the chromosome.
