Whole-Genome Shotgun Sequencing and Characterization of Probiotic Strain Clostridium butyricum UBCB 70 To Assess Its Safety.

ABSTRACT: Clostridium butyricum is a strictly anaerobic, butyric acid-producing, Gram-positive, spore-forming bacillus that is commonly present in the gut of humans. The complete genome sequence of Clostridium butyricum UBCB 70 was studied to evaluate the presence of antibiotic-resistant and clostridium toxin genes. Here, we announce the draft genome sequence of Clostridium butyricum UBCB 70, isolated from healthy human feces at Unique Biotech Limited, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.

Clostridium butyricum Bacteremia Associated with Probiotic Use, Japan.

Project description:Clostridium butyricum, a probiotic commonly prescribed in Asia, most notably as MIYA-BM (Miyarisan Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.; https://www.miyarisan.com), occasionally leads to bacteremia. The prevalence and characteristics of C. butyricum bacteremia and its bacteriologic and genetic underpinnings remain unknown. We retrospectively investigated patients admitted to Osaka University Hospital during September 2011-February 2023. Whole-genome sequencing revealed 5 (0.08%) cases of C. butyricum bacteremia among 6,576 case-patients who had blood cultures positive for any bacteria. Four patients consumed MIYA-BM, and 1 patient consumed a different C. butyricum-containing probiotic. Most patients had compromised immune systems, and common symptoms included fever and abdominal distress. One patient died of nonocclusive mesenteric ischemia. Sequencing results confirmed that all identified C. butyricum bacteremia strains were probiotic derivatives. Our findings underscore the risk for bacteremia resulting from probiotic use, especially in hospitalized patients, necessitating judicious prescription practices.

Genome Sequence of the Neurotoxigenic Clostridium butyricum Strain 5521.

Project description:Clostridium strains from six phylogenetic groups, C. botulinum groups I to IV, C. baratii, and C. butyricum, display the capacity to produce botulinum neurotoxin. Here, we present the genome sequence of a C. butyricum isolate, the neurotoxigenic strain 5521, which encodes the type E botulinum neurotoxin.

Accurate and Strict Identification of Probiotic Species Based on Coverage of Whole-Metagenome Shotgun Sequencing Data.

Project description:Identifying the microbes present in probiotic products is an important issue in product quality control and public health. The most common methods used to identify genera containing species that produce lactic acid are matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and 16S rRNA sequence analysis. However, the high cost of operation, difficulty in distinguishing between similar species, and limitations of the current sequencing technologies have made it difficult to obtain accurate results using these tools. To overcome these problems, a whole-genome shotgun sequencing approach has been developed along with various metagenomic classification tools. Widely used tools include the marker gene and k-mer methods, but their inevitable false-positives (FPs) hampered an accurate analysis. We therefore, designed a coverage-based pipeline to reduce the FP problem and to achieve a more reliable identification of species. The coverage-based pipeline described here not only shows higher accuracy for the detection of species and proportion analysis, based on mapping depth, but can be applied regardless of the sequencing platform. We believe that the coverage-based pipeline described in this study can provide appropriate support for probiotic quality control, addressing current labeling issues.

Whole Genome Sequencing of the Novel Probiotic Strain <i>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum</i> FCa3L.

Project description:Lactiplantibacillus plantarum is best known for its significant adaptive potential and ability to colonize different ecological niches. Different strains of L. plantarum are widely used as probiotics. To characterize the probiotic potential of the novel L. plantarum FCa3L strain isolated from fermented cabbage, we sequenced its whole genome using the Illumina MiSeq platform. This bacterial isolate had a circular chromosome of 3,365,929 bp with 44.3% GC content and a cyclic phage phiX174 of 5386 bp with 44.7% GC content. The results of in vitro studies showed that FCa3L was comparable with the reference probiotic strain L. plantarum 8PA3 in terms of acid and bile tolerance, adhesiveness, H2O2 production, and acidification rate. The strain 8PA3 possessed higher antioxidant activity, while FCa3L demonstrated superior antibacterial properties. The antibiotic resistance of FCa3L was more relevant to the probiotic strain than that of 8PA3, although a number of silent antibiotic resistance genes were identified in its genome. Genomic evidence to support adhesive and antibacterial properties, biosynthesis of bioactive metabolites, and safety of FCa3L was also presented. Thus, this study confirmed the safety and probiotic properties of L. plantarum FCa3L via complete genome and phenotype analysis, suggesting its potential as a probiotic, although further in vivo investigations are still necessary.
