ABSTRACT To understand the arsenic biogeocycles in the groundwaters at Tucumán, Argentina, we isolated Brevibacterium linens sp. strain AE38-8, obtained from arsenic-contaminated well water. This strain is extremely resistant to arsenicals and has arsenic resistance ( ars ) genes in its genome. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of B. linens AE38-8.
