Complete Genome Sequence of Bifidobacterium longum GT15: Unique Genes for Russian Strains
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, we report the first completely annotated genome sequence of the Russian-origin Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum strain GT15. We discovered 35 unique genes (UGs) which were detected from only the B. longum GT15 genome and were absent from other B. longum strain genomes (not of Russian origin).

Identification of Bifidobacterium Strains Isolated from Fecal Samples of Some Iranian Subjects Using 16SrRNA Gene Sequence Analysis and PCR-based Gene Specific Primers
For the first time in Iran 40 strains of Bifidobacterium were isolated from feces of Iranian subjects. By using phenotypic tests, 18 isolates were identified as Bifidobacterium longum, 10 as Bifidobacterium bifidum and one as Bifidobacterium catenolatum. In order to validate these results and also to identify other isolates that had not been identified by phenotypic tests, two methods of PCR wi...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Bifidobacterium longum 105-A, a Strain with High Transformation Efficiency
Bifidobacterium longum 105-A shows high transformation efficiency and allows for the generation of gene knockout mutants through homologous recombination. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of strain 105-A. Genes encoding at least four putative restriction-modification systems were found in this genome, which might contribute to its transformation efficiency.

Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are the third-largest solid component of milk. Their structural complexity renders them nondigestible to the host but liable to hydrolytic enzymes of the infant colonic microbiota. Bifidobacteria and, frequently, Bifidobacterium longum strains predominate the colonic microbiota of exclusively breast-fed infants. Among the three recognized subspecies of B. long...
