Complete Genome Sequence of the Nitrogen-Fixing and Solvent-Producing Clostridium pasteurianum DSM 525

Abstract

Here, we report on the closed genome sequence of Clostridium pasteurianum DSM 525, which is an anaerobic, Gram-positive and endospore-forming organism. C. pasteurianum can fix N2 and produce solvents such as butanol and 1,3-propanediol from carbohydrates. The genome consists of a single 4,350,673-bp replicon.
