Draft Genome Sequences of 16 Strains of Escherichia Cryptic Clade II Isolated from Intertidal Sediment in Hong Kong.

ABSTRACT: The genus Escherichia includes several cryptic clades. Among them, the members of cryptic clade II have rarely been found, and their genome sequences remain largely uninvestigated. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 16 strains of Escherichia cryptic clade II that were isolated from intertidal sediment in Hong Kong.

Draft Genome Sequences of Nine Stenotrophomonas maltophilia Isolates from a Freshwater Catchment Area in Hong Kong.

Project description:Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a widely distributed, Gram-negative bacillus that is increasingly identified as a multidrug-resistant opportunistic pathogen of concern. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of nine strains that were isolated from a freshwater catchment area in Hong Kong, corresponding to four different monophyletic lineages within the species.

Complete genome sequences of novel canine noroviruses in Hong Kong.

Project description:We report the complete genome sequences of two novel isolates of norovirus isolated from the fecal swab specimens of dogs in Hong Kong. The complete viral genome is approximately 7.6 kb in length and consists of 3 overlapping open reading frames encoding the ORF1 polyprotein, VP1, and VP2, respectively. Analysis of the VP1 sequence suggested that these noroviruses are divergent from known noroviruses and may represent a novel phylogenetic clade within the genus.

Complete genome sequences of novel rat noroviruses in Hong Kong.

Project description:We report two genome sequences of novel noroviruses isolated from fecal swab specimens of brown rats in Hong Kong. The complete genome is approximately 7.5 kb in length and consists of 3 overlapping open reading frames encoding ORF1 polyprotein, VP1, and VP2, respectively. Sequence analysis suggested that these noroviruses should be classified in genogroup V, but they are distinct from other known rodent noroviruses and represent a novel cluster within the genogroup.

Characterizing 56 complete SARS-CoV S-gene sequences from Hong Kong.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The spike glycoprotein (S) gene of the severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) has been useful in analyzing the molecular epidemiology of the 2003 SARS outbreaks. OBJECTIVES:To characterize complete SARS-CoV S-gene sequences from Hong Kong. STUDY DESIGN:Fifty-six SARS-CoV S-gene sequences, obtained from patients who presented with SARS to the Prince of Wales Hospital during March-May 2003, were analysed using a maximum likelihood (ML) approach, together with 138 other (both human and animal) S-gene sequences downloaded from GenBank. RESULTS:The maximum-likelihood (ML) trees showed little evolution occurring within these 56 sequences. Analysis with the other sequences, showed three distinct SARS clusters, closely correlated to previously defined early, middle and late phases of the 2003 international SARS outbreaks. In addition, two new single nucleotide variations (SNVs), T21615A and T21901A, were discovered, not previously reported elsewhere. CONCLUSIONS:The ML approach to the reconstruction of tree phylogenies is known to be superior to the more popular, less computationally and time-demanding neighbour-joining (NJ) approach. The ML analysis in this study confirms the previously reported SARS epidemiology analysed mostly using the NJ approach. The two new SNVs reported here are most likely due to the tissue-culture passaging of the clinical samples.

Draft Genome Sequence of Vibrio parahaemolyticus V110, Isolated from Shrimp in Hong Kong.

Project description:We report the whole-genome sequence of a tdh- and trh-negative Vibrio parahaemolyticus strain, V110, from shrimp. The major difference of V110 from clinical strains was its lack of the type III secretion system T3SS2, a key component of virulence. Further sequence comparison can shed light on the pathogenesis of V. parahaemolyticus.
