چکیده

Clostridium botulinum is important for food safety and studies of neurotoxins associated with human botulism. We present the draft genome sequences of two strains belonging to group II type B: one collected from Pacific Ocean sediments (DB-2) and another obtained during a botulism outbreak (KAPB-3).

Two Complete and One Draft Genome Sequence of Nonproteolytic Clostridium botulinum Type E Strains NCTC 8266, NCTC 8550, and NCTC 11219

Group II (gII) nonproteolytic Clostridium botulinum strains are a major cause of foodborne botulism outbreaks. Here, we report two complete genome sequences of gII type E strains NCTC 8266 and NCTC 8550 and one draft genome sequence of type E NCTC 11219.

The Type F6 Neurotoxin Gene Cluster Locus of Group II Clostridium botulinum Has Evolved by Successive Disruption of Two Different Ancestral Precursors

Genome sequences of five different Group II (nonproteolytic) Clostridium botulinum type F6 strains were compared at a 50-kb locus containing the neurotoxin gene cluster. A clonal origin for these strains is indicated by the fact that sequences were identical except for strain Eklund 202F, with 10 single-nucleotide polymorphisms and a 15-bp deletion. The essential topB gene encoding topoisomeras...

Genetic diversity of the flagellin genes of Clostridium botulinum groups I and II.

Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are produced by phenotypically and genetically different Clostridium species, including Clostridium botulinum and some strains of Clostridium baratii (serotype F) and Clostridium butyricum (serotype E). BoNT-producing clostridia responsible for human botulism encompass strains of group I (secreting proteases, producing toxin serotype A, B, or F, and growing optimal...

Draft Genome Sequences of 17 French Clostridium botulinum Group III Strains

Animal botulism is mainly associated with Clostridium botulinum group III strains producing neurotoxin types C, C/D, D, and D/C. In this report, we present the draft genome sequences of fourteen strains of Clostridium botulinum producing type C/D and two strains producing type D/C isolated in France, and one strain producing type D/C that originated from New Caledonia.
