Draft genome sequence of Comamonas testosteroni R2, consisting of aromatic compound degradation genes for phenol hydroxylase

Abstract

Comamonas testosteroni strain R2 was isolated from a continuous culture enriched by a low concentration of phenol-oxygenating activities with low Ks values (below 1 μ M). The draft genome sequence of C. testosteroni strain R2 reported here may contribute to determining the phenol degradation gene cluster.
