Abstract

We determined the complete genome sequence of Erythrobacter sp. strain KY5, a bacterium isolated from Tokyo Bay and capable of degrading carbazole. The genome consists of a 3.3-Mb circular chromosome that carries the gene clusters involved in carbazole degradation and biosynthesis of the photosynthetic apparatus of aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria.
