The genome of Sporomusa ovata strain H1 DSM 2662, an anaerobic, Gram-negative endospore-forming bacterium, was sequenced. S. ovata uses N-methyl compounds, primary alcohols, fatty acids, and H₂ and CO₂ as energy and carbon sources to produce acetate. The genome harbors one chromosome, which encodes proteins typical for sporulation.
