Draft Genome Sequences of Elizabethkingia meningoseptica

چکیده
Elizabethkingia meningoseptica is ubiquitous in nature, exhibits a multiple-antibiotic resistance phenotype, and causes rare opportunistic infections. We now report two draft genome sequences of E. meningoseptica type strains that were sequenced independently in two laboratories.

Draft Genome Sequences of Strains Representing Each of the Elizabethkingia Genomospecies Previously Determined by DNA-DNA Hybridization.
Draft genome sequences of Elizabethkingia meningoseptica and representatives of each of its four historically described genomospecies were sequenced here. Preliminary analysis suggests that Elizabethkingia miricola belongs to genomospecies 2, and both Elizabethkingia anophelis and Elizabethkingia endophytica are most similar to genomospecies 1.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Elizabethkingia meningoseptica Isolated from a Traumatic Wound
We report the draft genome assembly of Elizabethkingia meningoseptica strain 502. The sample was isolated from the wound of a repatriated military serviceperson who suffered major trauma from an improvised explosive device (IED), resulting in wounds with extensive environmental contamination. E. meningoseptica was isolated from wounds in both legs. The draft genome assembly has 21 contigs with ...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Elizabethkingia meningoseptica, Isolated from a Postoperative Endophthalmitis Patient
We present the draft genome assembly of an Elizabethkingia meningoseptica strain isolated from a 67-year-old postoperative endophthalmitis patient who suffered loss of vision in the right eye. The draft genome assembly has 167 contigs with a total size of 4,019,665 bp encoding multiple drug-resistant genes.
متن کاملInsights from the draft genome into the pathogenicity of a clinical isolate of Elizabethkingia meningoseptica Em3
Elizabethkingia meningoseptica is an emerging, healthcare-associated pathogen causing a high mortality rate in immunocompromised patients. We report the draft genome sequence of E. meningoseptica Em3, isolated from sputum from a patient with multiple underlying diseases. The genome has a length of 4,037,922 bp, a GC-content 36.4%, and 3673 predicted protein-coding sequences. Average nucleotide ...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Elizabethkingia meningoseptica EM1, Isolated from a Patient with a Bloodstream Infection
Elizabethkingia meningoseptica EM1 was isolated from a whole-blood sample from a female patient. The draft genome sequence of Em1 contains 4,038,467 bp, with a G+C content of 36.37%. A preliminary genome analysis showed that Em1 contains genes conferring resistance to β-lactams. The bacterium has hemolysin genes and a set of genes involved in heme uptake and heme utilization, showing its potent...
