چکیده
We and others have shown the utility of long sequence reads to improve genome assembly quality. In this study, we generated PacBio DNA sequence data to improve the assemblies of draft genomes for Clostridium thermocellum AD2, Clostridium thermocellum LQRI, and Pelosinus fermentans R7.

Draft genome sequences for Clostridium thermocellum wild-type strain YS and derived cellulose adhesion-defective mutant strain AD2.
Clostridium thermocellum wild-type strain YS is an anaerobic, thermophilic, cellulolytic bacterium capable of directly converting cellulosic substrates into ethanol. Strain YS and a derived cellulose adhesion-defective mutant strain, AD2, played pivotal roles in describing the original cellulosome concept. We present their draft genome sequences.
متن کاملExpression of adhA from different organisms in Clostridium thermocellum
Background Clostridium thermocellum is a cellulolytic anaerobic thermophile that is a promising candidate for consolidated bioprocessing of lignocellulosic biomass into biofuels such as ethanol. It was previously shown that expressing Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum adhA in C. thermocellum increases ethanol yield.In this study, we investigated expression of adhA genes from different organ...
متن کاملClostridium thermocellum JW20 (ATCC 31549) is a coculture with Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus.
A PCR assay based on 16S rRNA sequence differences among four thermophilic anaerobic bacterial strains was used to demonstrate contamination of Clostridium thermocellum JW20 (ATCC 31549) with a Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus strain. Therefore, we suggest that interpretation of experimental results with C. thermocellum JW20 be viewed with caution.
متن کاملCharacterization of CRISPR RNA processing in Clostridium thermocellum and Methanococcus maripaludis
The CRISPR arrays found in many bacteria and most archaea are transcribed into a long precursor RNA that is processed into small clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) RNAs (crRNAs). These RNA molecules can contain fragments of viral genomes and mediate, together with a set of CRISPR-associated (Cas) proteins, the prokaryotic immunity against viral attacks. CRISPR/Ca...
متن کاملComplete genome sequence of the cellulolytic thermophile Clostridium thermocellum DSM1313.
Clostridium thermocellum DSM1313 is a thermophilic, anaerobic bacterium with some of the highest rates of cellulose hydrolysis reported. The complete genome sequence reveals a suite of carbohydrate-active enzymes and demonstrates a level of diversity at the species level distinguishing it from the type strain ATCC 27405.
