Genome sequence of Hydrogenovibrio sp. strain SC-1, a chemolithoautotrophic sulfur and iron oxidizer

Abstract

Hydrogenovibrio sp. strain SC-1 was isolated from pyrrhotite incubated in situ in the marine surface sediment of Catalina Island, CA. Strain SC-1 has demonstrated autotrophic growth through the oxidation of thiosulfate and iron. Here, we present the 2.45-Mb genome sequence of SC-1, which contains 2,262 protein-coding genes.
