Draft genome sequences of four axenic Mycoplasma genitalium strains isolated from Denmark, Japan, and Australia.

ABSTRACT: The DNA genome of Mycoplasma genitalium currently represents the smallest of all known human bacterial pathogens. Despite their clinical importance in sexually transmitted infection and relevance as model bacterial pathogens, genomic diversity among M. genitalium strains worldwide is unknown. Herein we present the complete draft genome sequences of four geographically diverse strains of M. genitalium.

Analysis identifying common and distinct sequences among Texas clinical strains of Mycoplasma genitalium.

Project description:Mycoplasma genitalium is a human bacterial pathogen linked to urethritis and other sexually transmitted diseases. Here, we assessed the incidence of M. genitalium infection in patients attending a sexually transmitted disease clinic in San Antonio, TX, by use of diagnostic real-time PCR. Overall, 16.8% of women and 15.1% of men were found M. genitalium positive. Regions of the mgpB gene, which encodes the MgPa adhesin, were amplified from positive clinical specimens and evaluated for sequence variability, which demonstrated transmission of the pathogen between sexual partners. Follow-up analysis of a subset of patient specimens revealed reinfection by a different strain of M. genitalium, indicating the absence of protective immunity. Eighteen DNA sequence variants were obtained and compared with all other available clinical sequences. Detailed analysis revealed silent mutations of six amino acid residues within the encoded region of the MgPa adhesin in numerous clinical strains. In addition, missense mutations of limited numbers of amino acids were observed. Alignment of putative amino acid sequences revealed the simultaneous occurrence of several mutations and the existence of identical or similar protein variants in strains from different locations.

Draft Genome Sequences of Four Saccharibacter sp. Strains Isolated from Native Bees.

Project description:The genus Saccharibacter is currently understudied, with only one described species, Saccharibacter floricola, isolated from a flower. In an effort to better understand the microbes that come in contact with native bee pollinators, we isolated and sequenced four additional strains of Saccharibacter from native bees in the genera Melissodes and Anthophora These genomes range in size from 2,104,494 to 2,316,791 bp (mean, 2,246,664 bp) and contain between 1,860 and 2,167 (mean, 2,060) protein-coding genes.
