Complete Genome Sequence of a Propionibacterium acnes Isolate from a Sarcoidosis Patient
نویسندگان
چکیده
Propionibacterium acnes is a human skin commensal that resides preferentially within sebaceous follicles and is the only microorganism that has been isolated from sarcoid lesions. We report the complete genome sequence of P. acnes, which was isolated from a Japanese patient with sarcoidosis.

Genetic profiles of Propionibacterium acnes and identification of a unique transposon with novel insertion sequences in sarcoid and non-sarcoid isolates
Propionibacterium acnes is one of the most commonly implicated etiologic agents of sarcoidosis. We previously reported a complete genome sequence of the C1 strain of P. acnes as a clinical isolate from subcutaneous granulomatous inflammatory lesions in a patient with sarcoidosis. In the present study, we initially searched for genetic profiles specific to the C1 strain by core genome analysis a...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of an Erythromycin-Resistant Propionibacterium acnes Isolate Recovered from Folliculitis of the Scalp
Propionibacterium acnes is now well-known and recognized for its implication in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of an erythromycin-resistant P. acnes strain isolated from a case of folliculitis of the scalp belonging to phylotype IA1 and sequence type 18 (ST18).
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of propionibacterial DNA in bronchoalveolar lavage cells from patients with sarcoidosis.
BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE WORK The causes of sarcoidosis are still unknown. Propionibacterial subspieces are thought to be one of the most likely sources of antigens. Here we attempted to measure the amount of propionibacterial DNA in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cell samples from patients with sarcoidosis and other pulmonary diseases. METHODS We examined BAL cells from 42 patients with sarco...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Highly Rifampin-Resistant Propionibacterium namnetense NTS 31307302T Isolated from a Patient with a Bone Infection
Propionibacterium namnetense was recently described as a potential bone pathogen, which is closely related to Propionibacterium acnes, a skin commensal microorganism. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of the highly rifampin-resistant strain NTS 31307302(T) isolated from a patient with a tibia infection.
متن کاملExperimental pulmonary granuloma mimicking sarcoidosis induced by Propionibacterium acnes in mice.
Propionibacterium acnes has been implicated as an etiologic agent of sarcoidosis since the isolation of this bacterium from sarcoid lesions. We experimentally produced a murine pulmonary granuloma model using P. acnes with several features that simulate sarcoidosis. Mice were sensitized with heat-killed P. acnes and complete Freund's adjuvant and were subsequently challenged with heat-killed P....
