ABSTRACT
Sphingomonas spp. are Alphaproteobacteria considered to be versatile bacteria that can utilize a variety of natural substrates available in terrestrial and aquatic systems. Sphingomonas sp. strain FukuSWIS1 was isolated from the eutrophic and acidic freshwater Lake Grosse Fuchskuhle in northeastern Germany. The strain has a genome size of 3.89 Mb, possesses a set of photosynthetic genes, and expresses photopigment BChl a under oxic conditions. Thus, this strain belongs to the aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic (AAP) bacteria, which are most likely involved in humic matter degradation as indicated by the presence of organic compound mineralizing genes.
