Prop6 is a sulfate-reducing, propionate-oxidizing (formerly ) strain from sewage sludge. species are found in anoxic environments, in animal microbiota, and some produce the neurotoxin methylmercury. The 3.1-Mbp genome sequence enables studies of diverse environmental adaptations and the evolutionary genomics of mercury methylation mechanisms.
