Complete Genome Sequences of 17 Rapidly Growing Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Strains
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the complete genome sequences of 17 rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) strains, including 16 Mycobacterium abscessus complex strains and one M. immunogenum strain. These sequences add value to studies of the genetic diversity of rapidly growing NTM strains recovered from human specimens.

Complete Genome Sequence of the Mycobacterium immunogenum Type Strain CCUG 47286
Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Mycobacterium immunogenum type strain CCUG 47286, a nontuberculous mycobacterium. The whole genome has 5,573,781 bp and covers as many as 5,484 predicted genes. This genome contributes to the task of closing the still-existing gap of genomes of rapidly growing mycobacterial type strains.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of Mycobacterium kansasii Clinical Strains
Mycobacterium kansasii is a nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) pathogen, frequently isolated from clinical samples and responsible for a large part of NTM infections in the human population. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 12 M. kansasii strains isolated from clinical and host-associated sources from the Netherlands, Germany, and Poland.
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequences of Mycobacterium kansasii Strains Isolated from Rhesus Macaques
Mycobacterium kansasii is a nontuberculous mycobacterium. It causes opportunistic infections with pulmonary and extrapulmonary manifestations. We report here the complete genome sequences of two M. kansasii strains isolated from rhesus macaques. We performed genome comparisons with human and environmental isolates of M. kansasii to assess the genomic diversity of this species.

We describe here the draft genome sequence of a Mycobacterium goodii isolate from a pediatric patient in Western Cape, South Africa. To our knowledge, this is the second reported genome of this rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacterial species.
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Mycobacterium chelonae Type Strain CCUG 47445, a Rapidly Growing Species of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria
Mycobacterium chelonae strains are ubiquitous rapidly growing mycobacteria associated with skin and soft tissue infections, cellulitis, abscesses, osteomyelitis, catheter infections, disseminated diseases, and postsurgical infections after implants with prostheses, transplants, and even hemodialysis procedures. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of M. chelonae type strain CCUG 47445.
