Abstract

We present the draft genome sequence of Clostridium estertheticum strain CEST001. The genome is 4.8 Mbp long with a GC content of 30.6%. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization values against four C. estertheticum strains indicate that C. estertheticum CEST001 belongs to a novel subspecies of C. estertheticum.
