Abstract
Here, we report the 4.16-Mb draft genome sequence of an indole-degrading bacterium, Acinetobacter baumannii IITR88, isolated from the Bhagirathi river in India. A total of 4,069 coding regions (CDSs), 3 rRNAs, and 52 tRNAs were predicted. Genes for the degradation of indoles, phenylacetaldehyde, anthranilate, and several other aromatic compounds were present.
