Paenibacillus dendritiformis C454 Genome sequencing and assembly. Paenibacillus dendritiformis C454

The goal of the P. dendritiformis C454 genome sequencing is to understand the regulatory processes involved in cell-cell communication, colonial patterning and more generally, the cooperative bacterial response to varying environmental conditions involving epigenetic and genome wide changes. Additionally, the genome sequence of P. dendritiformis C454 can provide deeper insights into the molecular mechanisms and genetic factors that modulate social behavior in Gram-positive bacteria.
