Project description:We report a complete genome sequence of Collinsella aerofaciens JCM 10188T (=VPI 1003T). The genome consists of a circular chromosome (2,428,218 bp with 60.6% G+C content) and two extrachromosomal elements. The genome was predicted to contain 5 sets of rRNA genes, 58 tRNA genes, and 2,079 protein-encoding sequences.
Project description:Collinsella aerofaciens, a rod-shaped nonmotile obligate anaerobe, is the most abundant actinobacterium in the gastrointestinal tract of healthy humans. An altered abundance of C. aerofaciens may be linked with several health disorders, including irritable bowel syndrome. In the present study, we report the complete genome sequence of C. aerofaciens strain indica.
