First Report of a Whole-Genome Shotgun Sequence of a Clinical Enterococcus faecalis Sequence Type 6 Strain from South Africa
نویسندگان
چکیده
Enterococcus faecalis is a lactic acid-producing Gram-positive bacterium commonly found in the intestinal tract of humans and animals; it is implicated in multidrug-resistant nosocomial infections. The draft genome of this E. faecalis sequence type 6 (ST6) strain consists of 3,215,228 bp, with 37.20% GC content, 3,048 predicted coding sequences, and 61 RNA genes.

Draft Genome Sequence of a Clinical Enterococcus faecium Sequence Type 18 Strain from South Africa
We report the first draft genome sequence of an Enterococcus faecium sequence type 18 (ST18) strain isolated from a tuberculosis patient in Africa. The genome is comprised of 3,202,539 bp, 501 contigs, 37.70% GC content, 3,202 protein-encoding genes, and 61 RNA genes. The resistome and virulome of this important pathogen are presented herein.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Enterococcus faecalis Strain F165 Isolated from a Urinary Tract Infection
We report here a draft genome sequence of Enterococcus faecalis strain F165 isolated from a urine specimen in South Brazil. The genome size was 3,049,734 bp, with a G+C content of 37.38%, and genes related to antimicrobial resistance and adherence were found in the strain. These findings are consistent with pathogenesis of E. faecalis species.
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Enterococcus faecalis Strain P8-1 Isolated from Wild Magellanic Penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus) Feces on the South Coast of Brazil
Enterococcus faecalis strains have a ubiquitous nature that allows them to survive in different niches. Studies involving enterococci isolated from marine animals are scarce. Therefore, in this study, we report the complete genome sequence of E. faecalis strain P8-1 isolated from feces of a Magellanic penguin on the south coast of Brazil.
متن کاملMultilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) of Enterococcus faecalis clinical isolates in Ilam, Iran
Introduction: The Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) is the one of the pathogenic bacteria that become famous and considerable in the recent years. Here we tried to do typing the E. faecalis isolates to provide advantageous information that can help us to understand epidemiological communication between the E. faecalis isolates. Materials and methods: One hundred E. faecalis were isolated fr...
