First Insights into the Genome of the Amino Acid-Metabolizing Bacterium Clostridium litorale DSM 5388
Anja Poehlein et al. Genome Announc. 2014.
Abstract
Clostridium litorale is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped, and spore-forming bacterium, which is able to use amino acids such as glycine, sarcosine, proline, and betaine as single carbon and energy sources via Stickland reactions. The genome consists of a circular chromosome (3.41 Mb) and a circular plasmid (27 kb).
