Draft Genome Sequences of Histamine-Producing Morganella psychrotolerans Strains
نویسندگان
چکیده
Histamine-producing bacteria are responsible for scombrotoxin (histamine) fish poisoning, a leading cause of fish poisoning in the United States. We report here the first draft genomes of three histamine-producing Morganella psychrotolerans strains, isolated from tuna and mahi-mahi.

Development of a real-time PCR method coupled with a selective pre-enrichment step for quantification of Morganella morganii and Morganella psychrotolerans in fish products.
Histamine fish poisoning is common and due to toxic concentrations of histamine often produced by Gram-negative bacteria in fin-fish products with a high content of the free amino acid histidine. The genus Morganella includes two species previously reported to cause incidents of histamine fish poisoning. Morganella morganii and Morganella psychrotolerans are both strong producer of histamine. H...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of Extended-Spectrum-Beta-Lactamase-Producing Morganella morganii Strains AA1 and AV1, Isolated from a Freshwater Lake and Eicchornia crassipes Roots
Two strains of Morganella morganii, AA1 and AV1, were isolated from freshwater and Eicchornia crassipes roots, respectively. Here, we report their draft genome sequences, which are ~3.6 Mb and have 51% G+C content. The predicted coding sequences (3,259 for strain AA1 and 3,345 for strain AV1) encode beta-lactamases, transpeptidases, and penicillin-binding proteins.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of Histamine-Producing Photobacterium kishitanii and Photobacterium angustum, Isolated from Albacore (Thunnus alalunga) and Yellowfin (Thunnus albacares) Tuna
Histamine-producing bacteria are responsible for scombrotoxin (histamine) fish poisoning, a leading cause of fish poisoning in the United States. We report here the draft genome sequences of four histamine-producing (HP) Photobacterium kishitanii strains and nine HP Photobacterium angustum strains isolated from tuna.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of Histamine- and Non-Histamine-Producing Photobacterium Strains
Histamine-producing bacteria (HPBs) have recently been identified from the marine environment. The identification and characterization of HPBs is important to developing effective mitigation strategies for scombrotoxin fish poisoning. We report here the draft genomes of seven histamine-producing and two non-histamine-producing marine Photobacterium strains.

Background: Weissellicin 110 is the only bacteriocin reported in Weissella cibaria up to now. This bacteriocin represents several unique features. This is the first report on the gene sequence that encodes for the bacteriocin. Objectives: Providing a rapid detection method to isolate the weissellicin 110 encoding gene and determination of the bacteriocin distribution were the objectives. Materi...
