The complete genome sequence of strain GBS0709, isolated from an 81-year-old Japanese patient with the acute motor axonal neuropathy subtype of Guillain-Barré syndrome, was determined. It comprised a 3,632,068 bp circular chromosome and a 5,386 bp plasmid. The overall guanine and cytosine content was 57.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers studied mycobacterial infections in farmed yellowtail fish in western Japan, specifically in Kagoshima, finding Mycobacterium pseudoshottsii in six fishing ports between 2012 and 2013.
  • Phylogenetic analysis revealed that one strain shared similarities across multiple regions in Japan, indicating a possible nationwide distribution, while it remained distinct from strains in the Mediterranean and the U.S.
  • The study emphasizes the significance of bacterial genomic analysis for tracking the prevalence and transmission routes of M. pseudoshottsii, which can help in monitoring fish farms and preventing potential epidemics linked to global trade in fisheries.
