Query: NC_014391:2579919 Micromonospora aurantiaca ATCC 27029 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Micromonospora aurantiaca; Micromonospora; Micromonosporaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
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.
Subject: NC_015312:1191633 Pseudonocardia dioxanivorans CB1190 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Pseudonocardia dioxanivorans; Pseudonocardia; Pseudonocardiaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Country: USA; Environment: Sludge, Fresh water; Isolation: Industrial sludge contaminated; Temp: Mesophile; Temp: 30C. Pseudonocardia members are abundant in diverse environments, and are known to degrade a variety of pollutants. These bacteria are also important in biocatalysis applications and in the production of antibiotics. Pseudonocardia dioxanivorans was first isolated from 1,4-dioxane containing sludge. This organism is able to grow using 1,4-dioxane, a toxic compound used as an industrial solvent, as the sole carbon source.
