Query: NC_008705:868623 Mycobacterium sp. KMS, complete genome Lineage: Mycobacterium; Mycobacterium; Mycobacteriaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria General Information: This organism was isolated from creosote-contaminated soil from the Champion International Superfund site in Libby, Montana, USA. This microbe, along with some others collected at this site, are able to rapidly mineralize 14C-labeled pyrene. Phylogenetic studies based on the rRNA 16S gene confirmed that strains collected at this site were distinct from one another and also from other known Mycobacterium isolates.

General Information: Environment: Soil; Isolation: Soil; Temp: Mesophile; Temp: 37C. Micromonospora species are commonly isolated from soil, freshwater and marine environments. Like other actinomycetes Micromonospora species produce antibiotics, in addition a number strains are able to degrade natural and synthetic rubber.
