Burkholderia phenoliruptrix strain AC1100 (ATCC 53867) degrades a variety of recalcitrant xenobiotics, including 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetate. The molecular mechanism of 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetate degradation has been extensively studied. Here we present a 7.8-Mb assembly of the genome sequence of this 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetate-degrading strain, which may provide useful information related to the degradation of chlorinated aromatic compounds.
