Draft Genome Sequences of Four Vibrio parahaemolyticus Isolates from Clinical Cases in Canada.

ABSTRACT: Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis following ingestion of contaminated seafood. This report presents the draft genome sequences of four clinical strains of V. parahaemolyticus isolated in Canada. All four strains lack traditional pathogenic markers and possess uniquely individual characteristics identified using other typing criteria.

Draft Whole-Genome Sequences of 14 Vibrio parahaemolyticus Clinical Isolates with an Ambiguous K Serogroup.

Project description:Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a bacterial pathogen responsible for mild to severe gastroenteritis, wound infections, and septicemia resulting from the ingestion or handling of raw or undercooked contaminated seafood. Here, we report the draft whole-genome sequences and annotations of 14 Canadian V. parahaemolyticus clinical isolates that were serologically identified as K group II using polyvalent antisera but were not specifically K serogrouped using monovalent antisera.

Draft Genome Sequences of Clinical Vibrio parahaemolyticus Strains Isolated in Maryland (2010 to 2013).

Project description:Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the leading cause of food-borne illnesses associated with the consumption of raw shellfish worldwide. Here, we report 45 draft genomes of V. parahaemolyticus. Thirty-five of them are strains that were isolated from clinical cases in the state of Maryland from 2010 to 2013. The remaining 10 strains were historical isolates, isolated mostly from the West Coast of the United States during the period of 1988 to 2004. The availability of these genomes will allow for future phylogenetic analyses with other V. parahaemolyticus strains.

Draft Genome Sequences of the Vibrio parahaemolyticus Strains VHT1 and VHT2, Pasteurization-Resistant Isolates from Environmental Seafood.

Project description:Two pasteurization-resistant strains, VHT1 and VHT2, of environmental, viable but nonculturable, pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus were isolated from environmental oysters. Their whole-genome sequences were constructed. The genome sizes for VHT1 and VHT2 are 5.11 Mbp and 5.26 Mbp, respectively.

Draft Genome Sequences of 27 Northern Maine Clinical Isolates.

Project description:We report the draft genome sequences of 27 common pathogens collected from a northern Maine hospital in 2017. These were sequenced in order to determine temporal and biogeographical patterns of antibiotic gene distribution. A total of 908 antibiotic resistance genes, 848 insertion sequence elements, and 57 plasmids were identified.

Four genomic islands that mark post-1995 pandemic Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolates.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Vibrio parahaemolyticus is an aquatic, halophilic, Gram-negative bacterium, first discovered in 1950 in Japan during a food-poisoning outbreak. Infections resulting from consumption of V. parahaemolyticus have increased globally in the last 10 years leading to the bacterium's classification as a newly emerging pathogen. In 1996 the first appearance of a pandemic V. parahaemolyticus clone occurred, a new O3:K6 serotype strain that has now been identified worldwide as a major cause of seafood-borne gastroenteritis. RESULTS: We examined the sequenced genome of V. parahaemolyticus RIMD2210633, an O3:K6 serotype strain isolated in Japan in 1996, by bioinformatic analyses to uncover genomic islands (GIs) that may play a role in the emergence and pathogenesis of pandemic strains. We identified 7 regions ranging in size from 10 kb to 81 kb that had the characteristics of GIs such as aberrant base composition compared to the core genome, presence of phage-like integrases, flanked by direct repeats and the absence of these regions from closely related species. Molecular analysis of worldwide clinical isolates of V. parahaemolyticus recovered over the last 33 years demonstrated that a 24 kb region named V. parahaemolyticus island-1 (VPaI-1) encompassing ORFs VP0380 to VP0403 is only present in new O3:K6 and related strains recovered after 1995. We investigated the presence of 3 additional regions, VPaI-4 (VP2131 to VP2144), VPaI-5 (VP2900 to VP2910) and VPaI-6 (VPA1254 to VPA1270) by PCR assays and Southern blot analyses among the same set of V. parahaemolyticus isolates. These 3 VPaI regions also gave similar distribution patterns amongst the 41 strains examined. CONCLUSION: The 4 VPaI regions examined may represent DNA acquired by the pandemic group of V. parahaemolyticus isolates that increased their fitness either in the aquatic environment or in their ability to infect humans.

Draft Genome Sequences of Four Citrobacter Isolates Recovered from Wild Australian Shorebirds.

Project description:Citrobacter is a ubiquitous bacterial genus whose members inhabit a variety of niches. Some species are clinically important for both antimicrobial resistance (AMR) carriage and as the cause of nosocomial infections. Surveillance of Citrobacter species in the environment can provide indicators of the spread of AMR genes outside clinical spaces. In this study, we present draft genome sequences of four Citrobacter isolates obtained from three species of wild Australian shorebirds.

Draft Genome Sequences of 72 Isolates from All Four Species of Shigella.

Project description:Shigella is a genus of Gram-negative enteric pathogenic bacteria which has four species, Shigella dysenteriae, S. flexneri, S. boydii, and S. sonnei. Shigella species are clinically important bacteria because they cause shigellosis or dysentery. Here we report the genome sequences of 72 Shigella isolates from these four species.

Genome Sequences of Four Vibrio parahaemolyticus Strains Isolated from the English Channel and the River Thames.

Project description:Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the lead causative agent for seafood-borne human gastroenteritis. While its occurrence has traditionally been uncommon in Europe and the United Kingdom, rising sea surface temperatures have resulted in an increased prevalence. Here, we present the complete genome sequences of four novel V. parahaemolyticus strains isolated in the United Kingdom.
