Query: NC_008782:1277117 Acidovorax sp. JS42, complete genome

Lineage: Acidovorax; Acidovorax; Comamonadaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Acidovorax sp. JS42, formerly Pseudomonas sp. JS42, was isolated from nitrobenzene-contaminated sediment and is capable of using 2-nitrotolulene as a sole carbon and energy source. 2-nitrotolulene, a nitroaromatic compound, is used in the manufacture of dyes, pigments and explosives. Nitroaromatic compounds, which contain an aromatic ring with one or more nitro groups attached, are a significant contaminant in industrial soils. Acidovorax sp. JS42 degrades 2-nitrotolulene by first removing the nitro moiety producing 3-methylcatechol. The enzyme involved in this process, 2-nitrotolulene dioxygenase, has been purified and characterized.

Subject: NC_010002:4572573 Delftia acidovorans SPH-1, complete genome

Lineage: Delftia acidovorans; Delftia; Comamonadaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: This species was isolated from soil enriched with acetamide in Delft in the Netherlands. It was originally classified as Comamonas acidivorans in 1926, and redescribed and characterized in 1999. This organism is found in soil, sediment, activated sludge, crude oil, water, and various clinical samples.
