Whole-Genome Sequence of Bifidobacterium longum Strain Indica, Isolated from the Gut of a Healthy Indian Adult
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bifidobacterium longum, a Gram-positive rod-shaped anaerobic bacterium, inhabits the human gastrointestinal tract and contributes significantly to oligosaccharide production, amino acid metabolism, and protection against intestinal inflammation. Here, we report the whole-genome sequence of B. longum, which was isolated from the gastrointestinal tract of a healthy Indian adult.

Phenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of Bifidobacterium Isolates from Healthy Adult Koreans
A total of twenty-two strict anaerobic and Gram-positive Bifidobacteria, identified as B. adolescentis, B.pseudocatenulatum, or B. longum, were isolated from healthy adult Koreans. We here investigated the cellmorphology, antimicrobial resistance patterns to novel antibiotics and genotypic differentiation ofBifidobacteria assessing repetitive DNA element PCR (rep-PCR) fingerpr...

متن کاملIdentification 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...
