Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Probiotic Lactobacillus brevis TUCO-5E, Isolated from Porcine MilkThis report describes the draft genome sequence of Lactobacillus brevis TUCO-5E, a probiotic strain isolated from porcine maternal milk. The reads were generated by a whole-genome sequencing (WGS) strategy on an Illumina MiSeq sequencer and were assembled into contigs with a total estimated size of 2,461,089 bp.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of Bifidobacterium longum BB-79, a Strain That Produces Acid ExopolysaccharideThe surface exopolysaccharide of Bifidobacterium spp. was found to be involved in many processes, including bacterial colonization and host immune modulation.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequences of Bordetella pertussis Clinical Isolate FR5810 and Reference Strain Tohama from Combined Oxford Nanopore and Illumina SequencingHere, we describe the complete genome sequences of two Bordetella pertussis strains, FR5810, a clinical isolate recovered from the respiratory tract of an infant, and Tohama, a key reference strain for the species. Sequences were obtained using a hybrid approach combining Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION and Illumina NextSeq 500 sequence data.
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequences of Four Multidrug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates from Hospital Wastewater in SingaporeFour multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates were cultured from intensive care unit wastewater. All isolates exhibited resistance to carbapenem and extended-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotics.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Streptacidiphilus sp. Strain 15-057A, Obtained from Bronchial Lavage FluidStreptacidiphilus sp. strain 15-057A was isolated from a bronchial lavage sample and represents the only member of the genus not isolated from acidic soils.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of a Rodent Torque Teno Virus in Hainan Island, ChinaTorque teno virus (TTV) has been reported in a wide range of mammals. In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the complete genome of a genetic variant of a rodent TTV, RoTTV3-HMU1 (Hainan Medical University 1).
Genome SequencesGenome Sequences of Vibrio maerlii sp. nov. and Vibrio rhodolitus sp. nov., Isolated from RhodolithsWe report here the genome sequences of the novel isolates G62T and G98T from rhodoliths. The nearly complete genomes consisted of 4.7 Mbp (4,233 coding sequences [CDS]) for G62T and 4.5 Mbp (4,085 CDS) for G98T.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Klebsiella pneumoniae Siphophage SugarlandKlebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative bacterium associated with the gastrointestinal tract and is a significant nosocomial pathogen due to its antibiotic resistance. Phage therapy against K. pneumoniae may prove useful in treating infections caused by this bacterium.
Genome SequencesComplete Genome Sequence of Bacillus subtilis Strain WB800N, an Extracellular Protease-Deficient Derivative of Strain 168Bacillus subtilis WB800N is a genetically engineered variant of B. subtilis 168, such that all extracellular proteases are disrupted, which enables WB800N to be widely used for the expression of secretory proteins. Here, we report the 4.2-Mb complete genome sequence of WB800N and present all of the...
Genome SequencesDraft Genome Sequence of the Industrially Significant Bacterium Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NRRL 942Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NRRL 942 is a Gram-positive bacterium with several potential industrial uses. We have sequenced the whole genome of this organism to assist in understanding the biological mechanisms that might modulate human health or environmental risk in the event of its release into the environment.
