The Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 genome is 5.13 Million bp long and contains approximately 4738 predicted genes.

The sequence was released 10/09/2002 by the TIGR, and was described in Nat Biotechnol 20:1118-23 (2002) Heidelberg JF, Paulsen IT, Nelson KE, Gaidos EJ, Nelson WC, et al.  "Genome sequence of the dissimilatory metal ion-reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis. "
Abstract: Shewanella oneidensis is an important model organism for bioremediation studies because of its diverse respiratory capabilities, conferred in part by multicomponent, branched electron transport systems. Here we report the sequencing of the S. oneidensis genome, which consists of a 4,969,803-base pair circular chromosome with 4,758 predicted protein-encoding open reading frames (CDS) and a 161,613-base pair plasmid with 173 CDSs. We identified the first Shewanella lambda-like phage, providing a potential tool for further genome engineering. Genome analysis revealed 39 c-type cytochromes, including 32 previously unidentified in S. oneidensis, and a novel periplasmic [Fe] hydrogenase, which are integral members of the electron transport system. This genome sequence represents a critical step ... [Click above reference link for full abstract]

The Archaeal Genome Browsers at UCSC were developed by members of the Lowe Lab (Kevin Schneider, Katherine Pollard, Andy Pohl, Todd Lowe) and Robert Baertsch, with significant support from the UCSC Human Genome Browser group. The Archaeal Browsers are run by a slightly modified version of the UCSC Human Genome Browser system. All queries, bug reports, content corrections, suggested improvements, and new track data submissions should be sent to Todd Lowe (lowe @soe.ucsc.edu).
