Genome of Cupriavidus sp. HMR-1, a Heavy Metal-Resistant Bacterium
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cupriavidus sp. HMR-1 was isolated from a heavy metal-enriched culture of activated sludge from a wastewater treatment plant in Hong Kong. Here, we release the HMR-1 genome to provide basic genetic characteristics for a better understanding of its multiple heavy metal resistance properties.

Whole-genome sequence of Cupriavidus sp. strain BIS7, a heavy-metal-resistant bacterium.
Cupriavidus sp. strain BIS7 is a Malaysian tropical soil bacterium that exhibits broad heavy-metal resistance [Co(II), Zn(II), Ni(II), Se(IV), Cu(II), chromate, Co(III), Fe(II), and Fe(III)]. It is particularly resistant to Fe(II), Fe(III), and Zn(II). Here we present the assembly and annotation of its genome.
متن کاملEffect of environmental factors of temperature, salinity and level of heavy metal lead on growth of lead resistant bacterium isolated from Persian Gulf sediments
Heavy metals are one of the most stable contaminants in water and unlike the other contaminants, degrade difficultly, accumulate in food chain and are considered an important threat to general health of humans. The process of biosorption, is a new technology to remove contaminants such as heavy metals based on microorganisms capability. Characterizing lead resistant bacteria in contaminated sed...
متن کاملThe Complete Genome Sequence of Cupriavidus metallidurans Strain CH34, a Master Survivalist in Harsh and Anthropogenic Environments
Many bacteria in the environment have adapted to the presence of toxic heavy metals. Over the last 30 years, this heavy metal tolerance was the subject of extensive research. The bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans strain CH34, originally isolated by us in 1976 from a metal processing factory, is considered a major model organism in this field because it withstands milli-molar range concentrati...
متن کاملGenome Sequence Analysis of the Naphthenic Acid Degrading and Metal Resistant Bacterium Cupriavidus gilardii CR3
Cupriavidus sp. are generally heavy metal tolerant bacteria with the ability to degrade a variety of aromatic hydrocarbon compounds, although the degradation pathways and substrate versatilities remain largely unknown. Here we studied the bacterium Cupriavidus gilardii strain CR3, which was isolated from a natural asphalt deposit, and which was shown to utilize naphthenic acids as a sole carbon...
متن کاملBioremediation Activity of Pb (II) Resistance Citrobacter sp. MKH2 Isolated from Heavy Metal Contaminated Sites in Iran
Heavy metal pollution all around the world has become a major environmental concern and the bioremediation of polluted environments is an increasingly popular strategy due to both its efficiency and safety. In this study, a bacterial strain resistant to heavy metal was isolated from metal contaminated sites. Strain MKH2 was removed Pb (II) with 95.06%. This isolate was also resistant to zinc, c...
