Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are microbially produced biopolymers which are biodegradable and biocompatible. These compounds produced by microorganisms have been described as a potent alternative to synthetic plastics, which are often recalcitrant. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a PHA-producing
Bacillus cereus
isolated in our laboratory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
