A single-contig, circular metagenome-assembled genome (cMAG) of Candidatus (Ca.) Patescibacteria was reconstructed from a mesophilic full-scale food waste treatment plant in Japan. The genome is of small size and lacks fundamental biosynthetic pathways. Taxonomic analysis using the Genome Taxonomy Database revealed that this cMAG belonged to the genus JAEZRQ01 (Ca. Parcubacteria).
