Whole-Genome Sequence of the Cheese Isolate Streptococcus macedonicus 679
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is well recognized that Streptococcus macedonicus can populate artisanal fermented foods, especially those of dairy origin. However, the safety of S. macedonicus remains to be established. Here, we present the whole-genome sequence of strain 679, which was isolated from a French uncooked semihard cheese made with cow milk.

Whole-Genome Sequence of Streptococcus macedonicus Strain 33MO, Isolated from Curd of Morlacco Cheese in the Veneto Region (Italy)
A genetic characterization of Streptococcus macedonicus is important to better understand the characteristics of this lactic acid bacterium, frequently detected in fermented food bacteria communities. This report presents the draft genome sequence description of strain 33MO, the first publicly available genome sequence of an Italian S. macedonicus isolate.
متن کاملWhole-Genome Sequences of Three Streptococcus macedonicus Strains Isolated from Italian Cheeses in the Veneto Region
We report here the genome sequences of three Streptococcus macedonicus strains isolated from different cheeses in the Veneto region of Italy. The presented data aim at increasing the scarce genomic information available for this species, which is frequently encountered in fermented foods and appears to be a promising technological microorganism.
متن کاملCharacterization of the gene cluster involved in the biosynthesis of macedocin, the lantibiotic produced by Streptococcus macedonicus.
Streptococcus macedonicus ACA-DC 198, a food-grade isolate from naturally fermented Greek Kasseri cheese, produces a lantibiotic named macedocin that has been previously purified and characterized. In the present study, a 15,171 bp region in the S. macedonicus ACA-DC 198 chromosome, containing the biosynthetic gene cluster of macedocin, has been sequenced. This region consists of 10 ORFs, which...
متن کاملOccurrence of Streptococcus macedonicus in Italian cheeses.
A new approach for the detection and enumeration of Streptococcus macedonicus in cheese was developed. The method which is based on a first screening of cheeses by a PCR assay specific for S. macedonicus followed by plating positive samples on a differential medium (SM medium) was applied to 51 samples derived from PDO and traditional Italian cheeses. Streptococcus macedonicus was found in 16 o...
