Genome Sequence of Cronobacter sakazakii SP291, a Persistent Thermotolerant Isolate Derived from a Factory Producing Powdered Infant Formula
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cronobacter is an opportunistic pathogen associated with meningitis in neonates. Based on long-term surveillance of a powdered infant formula production facility, a persistent and thermotolerant isolate, denoted Cronobacter sakazakii SP291, was detected. Here we report the complete genome along with the sequences of three plasmids identified in this organism.

Outbreaks of human infection linked to the powdered infant formula (PIF) food chain and associated with the bacterium Cronobacter, are of concern to public health. These bacteria are regarded as opportunistic pathogens linked to life-threatening infections predominantly in neonates, with an under developed immune system. Monitoring the microbiological ecology of PIF production sites is an impor...

We introduce draft genome sequences of strains CDC1121-73 (human bronchial wash isolate) and GK1025 (powdered infant formula manufacturing facility isolate), which are both malonate-positive Cronobacter sakazakii serogroup O:2, sequence type 64. Assemblies for these strains have sizes of 4,442,307 and 4,599,266 bp and % G+C contents of 56.9 and 56.7, respectively.
متن کاملComplete genome of temperate phage ENT39118 from Cronobacter sakazakii.
Cronobacter sakazakii infection is particularly harmful to infants, and putative virulence factors of prophage origin have been identified in C. sakazakii. In this study, the phage ENT39118 was isolated from wild-type C. sakazakii; it belongs to the family Siphoviridae. The genomic sequence of phage ENT39118 was composed of circular double-stranded DNA with a length of 39,012 bp. The sequence o...

Cronobacter sakazakii is a food-borne pathogenic bacterium that may cause severe illness in neonates and the elderly. We present the genome sequence of a rare strain (ST40, CC45), commonly found in multiple food processing facilities and in powdered infant formula and only indicted in a single clinical case.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of the Earliest Cronobacter sakazakii Sequence Type 4 Strain, NCIMB 8272
The Cronobacter sakazakii clonal lineage defined as sequence type 4 (ST4) is associated with severe cases of neonatal meningitis and persistence in powdered infant formula. For genome sequencing of the earliest deposited culture collection strain of Cronobacter sakazakii ST4, we used the strain NCIMB 8272, originally isolated from milk powder in 1950.
