Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Mycoplasma feriruminatoris Strain IVB14/OD_0535, Isolated from an Alpine Ibex in a Swiss ZooMycoplasma feriruminatoris is a fast-growing and genetically tractable mycoplasma species. We sequenced the Swiss strain IVB14/OD_0535, isolated from an Alpine ibex. This strain has a circular genome of 1,027,435 bp with a G+C content of 24.3%. It encodes 835 open reading frames (ORFs), 2 rRNA operons, and 30 tRNAs.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of the Microcystin-Degrading Bacterium Novosphingobium sp. Strain MD-1This report describes the whole-genome sequence of a microcystin-degrading bacterium, Novosphingobium sp. strain MD-1, isolated from a lake in Japan. The Novosphingobium sp. strain MD-1 genome had a total length of 4,617,766 bp. Moreover, strain MD-1 showed a conserved microcystin-degrading gene cluster (mlrA to mlrF), similar to Sphingopyxis sp. strain C-1.
Genome SequencesRhesus Monkey Rhadinovirus Isolated from Hemangioma TissueWe isolated a rhesus monkey rhadinovirus, isolate RRVmmu 209-07, from hemangioma tissue. The virion DNA was sequenced by Illumina-based sequencing. Isolate RRVmmu 209-07 is highly similar overall to RRV 26-95, but considerable differences exist in the 3′ region of the genome.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Desulfuromonas sp. Strain AOP6, an Iron(III) Reducer Isolated from Subseafloor SedimentDesulfuromonas sp. strain AOP6, with iron(III)-reducing activity, was isolated from subseafloor sediment in Nankai Trough. We report the complete genome of this strain determined by Illumina MiSeq sequencing and PCR/Sanger sequencing-based gap closing. The genome includes the genes encoding c-type cytochromes, type IV pili, and fatty acid degradation enzymes.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Bacillus cereus Strain PL1, Isolated from Soil in JapanWe isolated the soil bacterium strain PL1 and herein report its complete genome sequence. The strain presented 97% average nucleotide identity (ANI) to Bacillus cereus and 91% ANIs to other members of the B. cereus group, indicating that it is affiliated with...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Larkinella sp. Strain BK230, Isolated from Populus deltoides RootsLarkinella sp. strain BK230, a heterotrophic bacterium of the phylum Bacteroidetes, was isolated from the roots of a field-grown eastern cottonwood tree (Populus deltoides) located in Georgia. The draft 7.27-Mb genome has a G+C content of 53.4% and contains 6,026 coding sequences, including 41 tRNA genes.
Genome SequencesMetagenome-Assembled Genome Sequences of Three Uncultured Planktomarina sp. Strains from the Northeast Atlantic Ocean...We report three metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of Planktomarina strains from coastal seawater (Portugal) to help illuminate the functions of understudied Rhodobacteraceae bacteria in marine environments. The MAGs encode proteins involved in aerobic anoxygenic photosynthesis and a versatile carbohydrate metabolism, strengthening the role of Planktomarina species in oceanic carbon cycling.
Genome SequencesInvestigating the Whole-Genome Sequence of a New Locus of Enterocyte Effacement-Positive Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 Strain Isolated from River Water...Diverse Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains have been isolated from several environmental samples. Rivers are associated with the distribution of STEC pathogens in the environment. Thus, we report the complete genome sequence of a locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE)-positive STEC O157:H7 strain isolated from the Mississippi River.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia CRB139-1, Isolated from Poultry Meat in JapanStenotrophomonas maltophilia is a nosocomial pathogen that primarily causes respiratory infection in humans. This pathogen is widely distributed in the environment, including in foods. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of S. maltophilia strain CRB139-1, isolated from poultry meat in Japan....
Omics Data SetsProteome of a Moraxella catarrhalis Strain under Iron-Restricted ConditionsMoraxella catarrhalis is a leading cause of otitis media and exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; however, its response to iron starvation during infection is not completely understood. Here, we announce a sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion spectra mass spectrometry (SWATH-MS) data set describing the differential...
