Description
Summary:Acinetobacter venetianus is a Gram-negative, mesophilic bacterium that thrives in aquatic environments. Here, we present the whole genome sequence of A. venetianus JKSF06, isolated from sediment that was collected in La Porte, Texas, near the southern terminus of the Houston Ship Channel into the Gulf of Mexico. The JKSF06 strain harbors multiple xenobiotic gene determinants targeting environmental waste that can be found here, including petroleum hydrocarbons and n-alkanes. In addition, JKSF06 can actively degrade organophosphate phophotriesters such ethyl paraoxon. In total, the genome of JKSF06 consists of 3,462,857 bp encoding for 3173 putative proteins. The complete sequence of A. venetianus JKSF06 can be viewed under accession LSVD00000000.1 through the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).
