Abstract:
We report the genome sequence of a marine Rhodococcus ruber PCTR3 consisting of 5,754,741 bp (5,306 genes and GC: 70.34%), isolated from sediment from Cochin Port, India. This strain degraded 1,000 mg/L naphthalene within 72 h, and functional annotation indicated multiple xenobiotic degradation enzymes and production of important secondary metabolites.
