Project name: Rhodococcus sp. DK17

Description: In an effort to fully understand the metabolic versatility of DK17, its genome was sequenced using Roche/454 FLX technology and assembled with Newbler assembler version 2.3 software and CLC Genomics Workbench 4.5.1. And optical mapping was performed to confirm the assembly output.Analysis of the DK17 specific ORFs indicate that many encode proteins likely to be involved in catabolism or transport of organics including aromatic hydrocarbons.
