Complete Genome Sequence of "Candidatus Hydrogeosomobacter endosymbioticus," an Intracellular Bacterial Symbiont of the Anaerobic Ciliate Scuticociliate GW7.

ABSTRACT: The bacterium "Candidatus Hydrogenosomobacter endosymbioticus" is an intracellular symbiont of anaerobic scuticociliate GW7, which is associated with hydrogenosome together with methanogenic archaea. Here, we report a complete genome sequence of the symbiont consisting of 827 kbp. Knowing this sequence would contribute to the understanding of the metabolic interactions and evolution of the tripartite symbiosis.
