Draft Genome Sequence of the Haloacid-Degrading Burkholderia caribensis Strain MBA4

Genome Announc. 2014 Feb 20;2(1):e00047-14. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00047-14.

Abstract

Burkholderia caribensis MBA4 was isolated from soil for its ability to utilize 2-haloacid. An inducible haloacid operon, encoding a dehalogenase and a permease, is mainly responsible for the biotransformation. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of this strain.
