Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of FK506-Producing Streptomyces tsukubensis Strain VKM Ac-2618DThe 23-membered macrolide tacrolimus (FK506) is an important immunosuppressant that is widely used in the prevention of graft rejection and in the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases and immune diseases. We report here the draft genome sequence of the FK506 producer Streptomyces tsukubensis VKM Ac-2618D.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Bacillus mycoides TH26, Isolated from a Permafrost Thaw Gradient...Here, we describe the complete genome assembly of a Bacillus mycoides isolate collected from a boreal forest soil associated with permafrost thaw. Using only long-read Nanopore sequences and VolTRAX library preparation, we assembled two circular contigs totaling 5,789,722 bp (N50, 5,306,036), a complete chromosome with one plasmid.
Genome SequencesWhole-Genome Shotgun Sequence of Drug-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Strain SA9, Isolated from a Slaughterhouse Chicken Carcass in South AfricaHere, we describe the genomic sequence of a drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus sequence type 239 (ST239) strain, SA9, isolated from a slaughterhouse chicken carcass in South Africa, including information about its antibiotic resistome, virulome, efflux genes, clonal lineage, and mobilome. This genomic information offers vital insights for the control of drug-...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Mesosutterella multiformis JCM 32464T, a Member of the Family Sutterellaceae, Isolated from Human FecesHere, we report the draft genome sequence of Mesosutterella multiformis JCM 32464T, a new member of the family Sutterellaceae that was isolated from human feces. The genome assembly comprised 2,621,983 bp, with a G+C content of 56.9%. This genomic analysis will be useful for understanding the metabolic activities of this asaccharolytic bacterium.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of emm1 Streptococcus pyogenes 10-85, a Strain Isolated from a Patient with Streptococcal Toxic Shock Syndrome in JapanHere, we announce the complete genome sequence of Streptococcus pyogenes strain 10-85 (type emm1), isolated from a patient with streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS). The strain lacks the genomic regions encoding SalR-SalK, a two‐component regulatory system, and the adjacent type I restriction modification system.
Genome SequencesFirst Genome Sequence of Brucella abortus Biovar 3 Strain BAU21/S4023, Isolated from a Dairy Cow in BangladeshWe report the genome sequence of Brucella abortus biovar 3 strain BAU21/S4023, isolated from a dairy cow that suffered an abortion in Savar, Dhaka, Bangladesh. The genome sequence length is 3,244,234 bp with a 57.2% GC content, 3,147 coding DNA sequences (CDSs), 51 tRNAs, 1 transfer messenger RNA (tmRNA), and 3 rRNA genes.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Citrobacter rodentium Strain DBS100Citrobacter rodentium strain DBS100 causes an infection of the intestines in mice. It provides an important model for human gastrointestinal pathogens, such as enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli, which cause life-threatening infections. To identify the genetic determinants that...
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of Four Vibrio parahaemolyticus Strains Isolated from the English Channel and the River ThamesVibrio parahaemolyticus is the lead causative agent for seafood-borne human gastroenteritis. While its occurrence has traditionally been uncommon in Europe and the United Kingdom, rising sea surface temperatures have resulted in an increased prevalence. Here, we present the complete genome sequences of four novel...
Genome SequencesComplete Chloroplast Genome Sequence of an Engelmann Spruce (Picea engelmannii, Genotype Se404-851) from Western CanadaEngelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii) is a conifer found primarily on the west coast of North America. Here, we present the complete chloroplast genome sequence of Picea engelmannii genotype Se404-851. This chloroplast sequence will benefit future conifer genomic research and contribute resources to further species conservation efforts.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Streptococcus anginosus Strain CALM001, Isolated from the Gut of an Elderly DaneHere, we present a 1.89-Mbp draft genome sequence of Streptococcus anginosus strain CALM001, a Gram-positive bacterium that was isolated from a fecal sample donated by a 70-year-old Dane enrolled in the Counteracting Age-Related Loss of Skeletal Muscle Mass (CALM) intervention study.
