A growing proportion of cases of tuberculosis observed in Europe is in migrants, some undocumented, from the developing world (3). Strong political measures should be enforced to ensure access to healthcare services with respect to confidentiality (as recently stated in the Ne...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Mycobacterium chelonae Type Strain ATCC 35752
Mycobacterium chelonae is a rapidly growing opportunistic nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) species that causes infections in humans and other hosts. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Mycobacterium chelonae type strain ATCC 35752, consisting of 4.89 Mbp, 63.96% G+C content, 4,489 protein-coding genes, 48 tRNAs, and 3 rRNA genes.
