Whole genome sequence of the syntrophic fatty acid-degrading bacterium <i>Syntrophomonas curvata</i> GB8-1 <sup>T</sup>
The syntrophic fatty acid-degrading bacterium <i>Syntrophomonas curvata</i> strain GB8-1<b><sup>T</sup></b>, isolated from anaerobic granular sludge, metabolizes C4-C18 fatty acids when grown with a suitable hydrogenotrophic partner. The complete genome sequence data provide insight into syntrophic fatty acid compound degradation under thermodynamically limiting conditions when exogenous electron acceptors are absent.
