Here, we report the draft whole-genome sequence of an anthracene-degrading bacterium, Mycolicibacterium frederiksbergense strain LB501T, using the PacBio and Illumina sequencing platforms. The complete genome sequence of strain LB501T consists of 6,713,618 bp and provides new insights into its metabolic capabilities, including aromatic conversion pathways with promiscuous activities.

We report here the draft whole-genome sequence of a fluorene-degrading bacterium, Sphingobium sp. strain LB126. The genes involved in the upper biodegradation pathway of fluorene are located on a plasmid, and the lower pathway that generates tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates is initiated by the meta-cleavage of protocatechuic acid that is chromosomally encoded.
