Abstract:
Mycobacterium aromaticivorans JS19b1(T) (=ATCC BAA-1378(T), DSM 45407(T)), isolated from petroleum-contaminated Hawaiian soil, has received much attention by possessing the powerful degrading capacity to polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAHs). With a significance of first genome sequence for M. aromaticivorans, the draft genome sequence of strain JS19b1(T) described in this study can provide the genomic basis for expanding the perspective insight of biotechnological application of strain JS19b1(T) as a model strain on PAHs-degradation via complex metabolic pathways.

Causative Organism
The primary infectious agent causing tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing, acid-fast, aerobic rod that exhibits sensitivity to heat and ultraviolet light. Instances of Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium contributing to the development of TB infection are rare.
