Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Geobacillus thermoleovorans strain B23, which was isolated from a deep subterranean petroleum reservoir in Japan. An array of genes related to unique long-chain alkane degradation pathways in G. thermoleovorans B23 has been identified by whole-genome analyses of this strain.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
