Genome Sequence of Clostridium acetobutylicum GXAS18-1, a Novel Biobutanol Production Strain.

Clostridium acetobutylicum is an organism involved in the production of acetone and butanol by traditional acetone-butanol-ethanol fermentation (ABE). We report the draft genome sequence of C. acetobutylicum strain GXAS18-1, which can produce ABE directly from cassava flour.
