METHYLOBACTERIUM GENOME SEQUENCES: A REFERENCE BLUEPRINT TO INVESTIGATE MICROBIAL METABOLISM OF C1 COMPOUNDS FROM NATURAL AND INDUSTRIAL SOURCES.

Methylobacterium genome sequences: a reference blueprint to investigate microbial metabolism of C1 compounds from natural and industrial sources.

BACKGROUND:Methylotrophy describes the ability of organisms to grow on reduced organic compounds without carbon-carbon bonds.The genomes of two pink-pigmented facultative methylotrophic bacteria of the Alpha-proteobacterial genus Methylobacterium, the reference species Methylobacterium extorquens strain AM1 and the dichloromethane-degrading strain
