Draft genome sequence of Pseudonocardia autotrophica strain DSM 43083, an efficient producer of peroxidases for lignin modification

Pseudonocardia autotrophica strain DSM 43083 is a filamentous actinobacterium and was described to degrade or modify lignin. Here, we present its draft genome sequence, with a size of 5.8 Mb, to unravel the gene set coding for promising monooxygenases, dioxygenases, and DyP-type peroxidases associated with aromatic metabolism and lignin modification.
