Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum is one of the most important acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE)-generating industrial microorganisms and one of the few bacteria containing choline in its cell wall. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of C. saccharoperbutylacetonicum strain N1-4 (6.6 Mbp; G+C content, 29.4%) and the findings obtained from the annotation of the genome.
