Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Clostridium butyricum Strain DKU_butyricum 4-1, Isolated from Infant FecesClostridium butyricum is a strictly anaerobic spore-forming bacillus that is commonly present in the gut of humans. We report here the complete genome sequence of Clostridium butyricum strain DKU_butyricum 4-1, isolated from infant feces.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequences for Two Myoviridae Strains Infecting Cyanobacteria in a Subarctic LakeWe isolated two closely related strains that belong to the Myoviridae family and infect cyanobacteria in a shallow subarctic rock basin lake. Their host was identified as a member of the Synechococcus-Cyanobium complex. Sequenced genomes of the two phages were 244,930 bp and 243,633 bp. We describe their annotation and highlight some noteworthy features.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Streptococcus ratti JH145We report here the complete genome sequence of Streptococcus ratti strain JH145. Streptococcus ratti is a cariogenic species of mutans streptococcus that has been isolated from rat and human teeth. The strain JH145, derived from strain BHT-2, is interesting for oral health because it does not...
Genome SequencesGenome Sequence of Vibrio cholerae Strain RFB16, Isolated from North Park Lake in Allegheny County, PennsylvaniaVibrio cholerae is an aquatic organism and facultative human pathogen that typically resides in coastal areas and brackish water. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of V. cholerae strain RFB16, which was isolated from a freshwater lake in southwestern Pennsylvania.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of the Highly Pathogenic Strain A/Domestic Goose/Pavlodar/1/05 (H5N1) of the Avian Influenza Virus, Isolated in Kazakhstan in 2005Here, we present the complete genome sequence of a highly pathogenic strain of avian influenza A virus/domestic goose/Pavlodar/1/05 (H5N1) (GS/1/05), which belongs to clade 2.2. This strain of the influenza virus was isolated in northern Kazakhstan in 2005.
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of Clinical Isolates of NDM-1-Producing Klebsiella quasipneumoniae subsp. similipneumoniae and KPC-2-Producing Klebsiella quasipneumoniae subsp. quasipneumoniae from BrazilKlebsiella quasipneumoniae is an emerging pathogen in human medicine. We report draft genome sequences of NDM-1- and KPC-2-producing K. quasipneumoniae strains from inpatients in Brazil. K. quasipneumoniae subsp. ...
Genome SequencesGenome Sequence of a Segmented Filamentous Bacterium Strain That Confers a Rotavirus Resistance Phenotype in MiceSegmented filamentous bacteria (SFB) are well appreciated for eliciting Th17 cell immune responses. Here, we report the genome sequence of a murine isolate of SFB, which confers strong protection against rotavirus infection independent of acquired immunity.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of an Alphabaculovirus from Choristoneura diversanaThe genome sequence of a baculovirus isolated from Choristoneura diversana is 122,827 bp long and contains 150 putative open reading frames (ORFs). The virus is closely related to alphabaculoviruses isolated from insect species of the genus Choristoneura.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Burkholderia sp. Strain THE68, a Bacterial Symbiont Isolated from Midgut Crypts of the Seed Bug Togo hemipterusBurkholderia sp. strain THE68 is a bacterial symbiont isolated from the midgut crypts of a phytophagous stink bug, Togo hemipterus. Here, we report the complete 7.98-Mb genome of this symbiont, which consists of six circular replicons containing 7,238 protein coding genes.
Omics Data SetsMetagenome Sequences from Tidal Marsh and Marine Sediment from the Great Bay Estuary of New HampshireTidal marsh and estuarine marine microbial sediment metagenomes from the Great Bay Estuary of New Hampshire were sequenced and found to be dominated by Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Actinobacteria. Both types of sediment contained many unclassified bacterial sequences, including the mollusk pathogen Perkinsus marinus...
