The complete genome of Caulobacter vibrioides strain CB2 consists of a 4,123,726-bp chromosome, a GC content of 67.2%, and 3,896 coding DNA sequences. It has no rearrangements but numerous indels relative to the reference NA1000 genome. This will allow us to study the impact of horizontal gene transfer on caulobacter genomes.
