Porphyromonas gingivalis is strongly associated with periodontitis. P. gingivalis strain trafficking and tissue homing differ widely, even among presumptive closely related strains, such as W83 and A7436. Here, we present the genome sequence of A7436 with a single contig of 2,367,029 bp and a G+C content of 48.33%.

We present the draft genome ofPorphyromonas gingivalisMP4-504, a low-passage clinical isolate obtained from a periodontitis patient. The genome is composed of 92 contigs for a length of 2,373,453 bp and a G+C of 48.3%. ThetraA-Qconjugative transfer locus is genetically distinct from W83 but highly similar to ATCC 33277.
