Draft Genome Sequence Of A New Methanobacterium Strain Potentially Resistant To Bile Salts, Isolated From Deer Feces

We present the high-quality draft genome of Methanobacterium subter-raneum DF, a hydrogenotrophic methanogen that was isolated from deer feces. This organism has potentially been overlooked in previous studies. Interestingly, its ge-nome encoded bile salt hydrolase, a crucial enzyme for bile salt tolerance that is found in gut organisms.
