Rhodococcus opacus is a bacterium species in the genus Rhodococcus. It is moderately chemolithotrophic.1 Its genome has been sequenced.2 R. opacus possesses extensive catabolic pathways for both sugars and aromatics and can tolerate inhibitory compounds found in depolymerized biomass (e.g., phenolics and furfural)
