Bacillus coagulans XZL4 is an efficient pentose-utilizing producer of important platform compounds, such asl -lactic acid, 2,3-butanediol, and acetoin. Here we present a 2.8-Mb assembly of its genome. Simple and efficient carbohydrate metabolism systems, especially the transketolase/transaldolase pathway, make it possible to convert pentose sugars to products at high levels.
