Draft Genome Sequence of Rhodococcus aetherivorans JCM 14343 T , a Bacterium Capable of Degrading Recalcitrant Noncyclic and Cyclic Ethers

Abstract

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Rhodococcus aetherivorans JCM 14343 T , which possesses the versatile ability to degrade recalcitrant noncyclic and cyclic ether compounds. The 4.2-Mbp genome of this bacterium contains alkane hydroxylase and propane monooxygenase genes involved in the degradation of noncyclic and cyclic ethers, respectively.
