Draft genome sequence of Enterococcus faecium SP15, a potential probiotic strain isolated from spring water.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:Enterococci are Gram-positive lactic acid bacteria and common inhabitants of the gastrointestinal tract of mammals, including humans. They are also widely distributed in diverse environments such as soil, water, vegetables and food. Enterococcus faecium is able to produce antimicrobial compounds (enterocins) and thus can act as a probiotic. E. faecium SP15 is a newly identified enterocin-producing strain from spring water that has been subjected to genome sequence analysis to provide understanding of its antimicrobial and probiotic properties. DATA DESCRIPTION:The draft genome of E. faecium SP15 comprises of 2,783,033 bp with a G+C content of 38.08%. Five genetic loci predicted to specify enterocin production were identified, but no virulence factors could be detected and only two potential antibiotic resistance genes were noted.

Draft genome sequence of Enterococcus faecium strain LMG 8148.

Project description:Enterococcus faecium, traditionally considered a harmless gut commensal, is emerging as an important nosocomial pathogen showing increasing rates of multidrug resistance. We report the draft genome sequence of E. faecium strain LMG 8148, isolated in 1968 from a human in Gothenburg, Sweden. The draft genome has a total length of 2,697,490 bp, a GC-content of 38.3 %, and 2,402 predicted protein-coding sequences. The isolation of this strain predates the emergence of E. faecium as a nosocomial pathogen. Consequently, its genome can be useful in comparative genomic studies investigating the evolution of E. faecium as a pathogen.

Draft Genome Sequence of Vancomycin-Susceptible, Ampicillin-Intermediate Enterococcus faecium Strain D344RRF.

Project description:Enterococcus faecium is an important nosocomial pathogen, causing a substantial health burden due to high resistance to antibiotics and its ability to colonize the gastrointestinal tract. Here, we present the draft genome of vancomycin-susceptible, ampicillin-intermediate strain D344RRF, a rifampicin/fusidic acid-resistant and commonly used laboratory strain, which is useful in studying the transfer of antibiotic resistance.

Draft genome sequence data of Enterococcus faecium R9, a multiple enterocins-producing strain

Project description:Food contamination by pathogens results in serious health problems and economic losses. Chemical food preservatives pose a risk to human health when used in food preservation. To increase the shelf life of the products and prevent spoilage, the dairy sector is considering natural preservatives such the ribosomally synthesized peptides, bacteriocins. Here we present the draft genome sequence of Enterococcus faecium strain R9 producing three bacteriocins isolated from raw camel milk. These bacteriocins showed valuable technological properties, such as sensitivity to proteolytic enzymes, heat stability, and wide range of pH tolerance. The 2 × 250 bp paired end reads sequencing was performed on Illumina HiSeq 2500 sequencing. The genome sequence consisted of 3,598,862 bases, with a GC content of 37.94% bases. The number of raw reads was 4,670,510, and the assembly N50 score was 65,355 bp with a 310.28 average coverage. A total of 3,086 coding sequences (CDSs) was predicted with 2,126 CDSs with a known function and 127 with a signal peptide. Annotation of the genome sequence revealed bacteriocins encoding genes, namely, enterocin B, enterocin P, and two-component enterocin X (X-alfa and X-beta subunits). These enterocins are beneficial for controlling Listeria monocytogenes in the food industry. Genome sequence of Enterococcus faecium R9 has been deposited at the gene bank under BioSample accession number JALJED000000000 and are available in Mendeley Data [1].
