Genome sequence of Pseudomonas citronellolis SJTE-3, an estrogenand polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading bacterium

Abstract

Pseudomonas citronellolis SJTE-3, isolated from the active sludge of a wastewater treatment plant in China, can utilize a series of environmental estrogens and estrogen-like toxicants. Here, we report its whole-genome sequence, containing one circular chromosome and one circular plasmid. Genes involved in estrogen biodegradation in this bacterium were predicted.
