Abstract

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a strain of Clostridium isolated from sediment collected from an estuarine environment. The strain was isolated using a minimal medium designed to select for chemoautotrophic microorganisms. The strain may represent a novel species within the genus Clostridium, and this genome sequence enables further investigation into the genetic and metabolic diversity of this organism.
