Project description:We report a draft genome sequence for Dichelobacter nodosus ATCC 25549, strain VPI 2340 [11342], a causative agent of ovine footrot. The draft genome shares ~98% gene similarity with the available genome of D. nodosus strain VCS1703A but is differentiated by extensive gene duplication and the absence of 13 particular genes.
Project description:To determine the genes in addition to fimA regulated by sigma 54 by analysing the gene expression profiles of an rpoN mutant compared to the D. nodosus wild-type strain. Keywords: genetic modification
