Genome sequence of Enterococcus sp. strain C1, an azo dye decolorizer

J Bacteriol. 2012 Oct;194(20):5716-7. doi: 10.1128/JB.01372-12.

Abstract

Enterococcus sp. strain C1 is a facultative anaerobe which was coisolated with Citrobacter sp. strain A1 from a sewage oxidation pond. Strain C1 could degrade azo dyes very efficiently via azo reduction and desulfonation in a microaerophilic environment. Here the draft genome sequence of Enterococcus sp. C1 is reported.
