Draft Genome Sequence of mc251, a Highly Hydrogen Peroxide-Resistant Mycobacterium smegmatis Mutant Strain
نویسندگان
چکیده
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis-like Mycobacterium smegmatis mutant strain, mc(2)51, compared to that of wild-type strain M. smegmatis mc(2)155. The draft genome sequence comprises 6,823,739 bp, revealing 6,569 coding DNA sequences (CDSs) and 50 RNA genes (4 rRNA genes and 46 tRNA genes).

Draft Genome Sequence of MKD8, a Conjugal Recipient Mycobacterium smegmatis Strain
We report an annotated draft genome sequence of the Mycobacterium smegmatis strain MKD8. This strain acts as a recipient during conjugation with the reference M. smegmatis strain mc(2)155. While the genomes of the two strains are colinear and have similar sizes, extensive genome-wide sequence variation suggests rich diversity within the M. smegmatis clade.
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequences of a Mycobacterium smegmatis Laboratory Strain (MC2 155) and Isoniazid-Resistant (4XR1/R2) Mutant Strains
We report the whole genome sequences of a Mycobacterium smegmatis laboratory wild-type strain (MC(2) 155) and mutants (4XR1, 4XR2) resistant to isoniazid. Compared to Mycobacterium smegmatis MC(2) 155 (NC_008596), a widely used strain in laboratory experiments, the MC(2) 155, 4XR1, and 4XR2 strains are 60, 128 and 93 bp longer, respectively.
متن کاملThe Mycobacterium phlei Genome: Expectations and Surprises
Mycobacterium phlei, a nontuberculosis mycobacterial species, was first described in 1898-1899. We present the complete genome sequence for theM. phlei CCUG21000(T)type strain and the draft genomes for four additional strains. The genome size for all five is 5.3 Mb with 69.4% Guanine-Cytosine content. This is ≈0.35 Mbp smaller than the previously reported M. phlei RIVM draft genome. The size di...
متن کاملThe cytochrome bd-type quinol oxidase is important for survival of Mycobacterium smegmatis under peroxide and antibiotic-induced stress
Targeting respiration and ATP synthesis has received strong interest as a new strategy for combatting drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Mycobacteria employ a respiratory chain terminating with two branches. One of the branches includes a cytochrome bc1 complex and an aa3-type cytochrome c oxidase while the other branch terminates with a cytochrome bd-type quinol oxidase. In this commun...
متن کاملOrganic hydroperoxide resistance protein and ergothioneine compensate for loss of mycothiol in Mycobacterium smegmatis mutants.
The mshA::Tn5 mutant of Mycobacterium smegmatis does not produce mycothiol (MSH) and was found to markedly overproduce both ergothioneine and an ~15-kDa protein determined to be organic hydroperoxide resistance protein (Ohr). An mshA(G32D) mutant lacking MSH overproduced ergothioneine but not Ohr. Comparison of the mutant phenotypes with those of the wild-type strain indicated the following: Oh...
