Rhodococcus ruber YC-YT1 Genome sequencing and assembly. Rhodococcus ruber

Previously, we isolated Rhodococcus ruber. YC-YT1 from dyed contaminated soil, which was capable of utilizing several kinds of PAEs as sole source of carbon and energy for growth.This strain has been deposited in China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC) with deposit number as CGMCC No. 13959.The genomic DNA of strain YC-YT1 were extracted and evaluated before sequencing. The genome of strain YC-YT1 was sequenced using Single Molecular, Real-Time (SMRT) technology with the PacBio RS II platform.The genome information of strain YC-YT1 would be useful for elucidating the molecular mechanism of PAEs metabolism and provides new approach for the bioremediation of PAEs contaminated environments.
