Complete Genome Sequence of (ATCC 15551), Used as a Cosmetic Ingredient.

We report the first complete genome sequence of a strain (ATCC 15551) that is used in the cosmetic industry as ferment. The assembled genome consisted of one chromosome and two plasmids. These data will provide valuable information and important insights into the physiology of this filamentous organism.

Genome Sequence of Lactobacillus fermentum Strain NCC2970 (CNCM I-5068).

Lactobacillus fermentum NCC2970 (CNCM I-5068) is a lactic acid bacterium originating from the Nestle Culture Collection. Here, we disclose its full 1.9-Gb genome sequence comprising one chromosome with no plasmid.

Transcriptional profiling of Klebsiella pneumoniae defines signatures for planktonic, sessile and biofilm-dispersed cells.

Background: Surface-associated communities of bacteria, known as biofilms, play a critical role in the persistence and dissemination of bacteria in various environments. Biofilm development is a sequential dynamic process from an initial bacterial adhesion to a three-dimensional structure formation, and a subsequent bacterial dispersion. Transitions between these different modes of growth are governed by complex and partially known molecular pathways.

Genome Sequence of a Clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae Sequence Type 6 Strain.

We report here the genome sequence of Klebsiella pneumoniae CH1034, a sequence type 6 (ST6) strain isolated in 2012 from a central venous catheter of a hospitalized patient.

Draft Genome Sequence of the Pathogenic Fungus Scedosporium apiospermum.

The first genome of one species of the Scedosporium apiospermum complex, responsible for localized to severe disseminated infections according to the immune status of the host, will contribute to a better understanding of the pathogenicity of these fungi and also to the discovery of the mechanisms underlying their low susceptibility to current antifungals.
