Linamarin-utilizing bacterium (LUB) is a microorganism that uses and breaks down cassava's principal cyanogenic compound, linamarin. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of strain WOB3 (previously strain WOB3) sequenced and assembled with a total reads of 8,750,054 bp. The genome has 1,269 contigs and, G+C content of 41.

strain WOB7 is a linamarin-utilizing bacterium (LUB) that was isolated from cassava wastewater obtained from a processing factory. We present here the draft genome sequence of the strain (WOB7). These data provide valuable information on the prospects of the linamarase and other genes of importance associated with cyanogen detoxification.

strain WOIS2, a nitrile-metabolizing bacterium, was isolated from solid waste leachates at the Olusosun dumpsite, Ojota, Lagos State, Nigeria. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of strain WOIS2. These data provide valuable information on the bioprospecting of nitrilase and other intriguing genes of interest.

Dirhodium(II,II) paddlewheel catalysts were evaluated in silyl-hydrogen insertion reactions of aryl diazo compounds generated from -nosyl hydrazones. The high reactivity of aryl diazo compounds necessitates their in situ generation from sulfonyl-protected hydrazones. Herein, we describe our efforts to evaluate this transformation utilizing Rh(II) catalysts, including those with tethered, axially coordinating ligands.
