Draft Genome Sequences of Acinetobacter parvus CM11, Acinetobacter radioresistens CM38, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia BR12, Isolated from Murine Proximal Colonic Tissue

Here, we report three genome sequences of bacteria isolated from murine proximal colonic tissue and identified as Acinetobacter parvus CM11, Acinetobacter radioresistens CM38, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia BR12.

we identified bacteria located inside murine proximal colonic crypts (1). These bacteria were aerobic, nonfermentative, and mainly belong to the genus Acinetobacter. Delftia and Stenotrophomonas spp. were also identified. In order to study the impact of these bacteria on the intestinal epithelium, the first step was to cultivate them. Proximal colonic tissues from C57BL/6 mice (Elevage Janvier) were washed with bleach and homogenized in 2 ml of sterile phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) using the Precellys system with 2.8-mm ceramic beads. This mixture was then added to 30 ml of a minimum medium (2). The culture were incubated at 30°C for 48 h, with shaking at 300 rpm/min in a Multitron incubation shaker (Infors) and isolated on agar plates (GTCS, MacConkey, Herellea, and CHROMagar). Selected colonies were reisolated on CHROMagar to obtain a pure colony. The colonies were identified using the Biolog system with a GEN III MicroPlate. Strain identification was confirmed by Sanger sequencing of 16S, rpoB, and gyrB genes after genomic DNA extraction by the Wizard genomic DNA purification kit, according to the manufacturer's instructions (Promega). The genomes were sequenced with the Illumina HiSeq 2000 technology (paired-end libraries) at the Institut Pasteur of Paris, France.
The numbers of paired-end reads for all samples are indicated in Table 1. For Acinetobacter parvus CM11 and Acinetobacter radioresistens CM38, the average base quality for Read 1 and Read 2 is Ͼ30, and for Stenotrophomonas maltophilia BR12, it is Ͼ32 and 20, respectively. The 100-base reads were filtered out using Prinseq-lite 0.20.3 (3).
The parameters of filtering were fixed to remove all reads with a quality score of Ͻ30 for bases and/or an average quality score of Ͻ35 for read sequences (for A. parvus CM11 and A. radioresistens CM38) and Ͻ33 for S. maltophilia BR12. Exact or a reverse complementary duplicate (for both R1 and R2), reads containing ambiguous base N for Ͼ1% of their length, and reads of low complexity (entropy value, Ͻ70) were removed. The numbers of paired-end reads remaining after filtering are given in Table 1. Those reads have been used for producing the contigs using the assembly de novo option of CLC-Assembler 4.2.0 and CLC Genomics Workbench (CLC bio).
Moreover, the contigs were cleaned: all contigs Ͻ1,000 bases and/or containing the ambiguous base N for Ͼ15% of their length were removed. The numbers of contigs before and after cleaning are shown in Table 1.
Functional annotation was carried out on cleaned contigs using tools from RAST (4, 5) (http://rast.nmpdr.org/) and from the MicroScope platform (6) (http://www.genoscope.cns.fr/agc /microscope/mage/). RAST annotation (Table 1) showed the genes involved in antibiotic resistance, and interestingly, the gene encoding the ␤-lactamase was present in the three strains. The knowledge of the complete sequence of these strains will allow us to better understand the impact of these bacteria on the intestinal epithelium.
Nucleotide sequence accession numbers. The draft genome sequences have been deposited at DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank under the accession numbers listed in Table 1.
