Genome sequencing of SMX-degrading Bacillus cereus SDB-X strains (SDB-X00/X30/X60) from sequential domestication
This project provides the genome assemblies (each containing one chromosome and one plasmid) of three Bacillus cereus SDB-X strains (SDB-X00, SDB-X30, SDB-X60), which were isolated from sequential domestication cultures for sulfamethoxazole (SMX) degradation. The study aims to characterize the genomic changes of B. cereus SDB-X during 60 days of SMX-targeted domestication, identify functional genes associated with SMX degradation or adaptive evolution, and provide genetic resources for understanding the microbial degradation mechanism of sulfonamide antibiotics.
