Genome data of Mycolicibacterium sp. strain MBM. Circular map of the genome of strain MBM. The tracks from outside represent: (1) Forward CDSs (yellow); (2) Reverse CDSs (green); (3) tRNA (maroon); (4) %GC plot (purple and mustard yellow); (5) GC skew [(GC)/(G + C)] (purple and mustard yellow). The genome of MBM carries two sets of clusters of catabolic genes each for phthalic acid (PA) and protocatechuic acid (PCA) apart from 17 putative phthalate esterase(s) marked as est1-est17. The genes are drawn to the exact scale. Other genes relevant to phthalate metabolic pathway, besides essential genes for multiple cellular processes are listed in Supplementary file 2 (Supporting Information)
