Draft Genome Sequence of the Fluconazole-Resistant Yarrowia lipolytica Clinical Isolate CBS 18115.

Yarrowia lipolytica is a nonconventional yeast of industrial interest that can sometimes act as an opportunistic pathogen and is responsible for invasive fungal infections. We report the draft genome sequence of the fluconazole-resistant strain CBS 18115, which was isolated from a blood culture. The Y132F substitution in , which was previously described in fluconazole-resistant isolates, was identified.

Draft Genome Sequence of the Fluconazole-Resistant Candida palmioleophila Clinical Isolate CBS 18098.

Candida palmioleophila belongs to the Saccharomycetales. This opportunistic yeast which has been associated with invasive infections in human and animals, warrants a specific attention as it is frequently misidentified and display reduced susceptibility to fluconazole. Here, we report the first draft genome of C.

Type IX Secretion System Effectors and Virulence of the Model Flavobacterium columnare Strain MS-FC-4.

Flavobacterium columnare causes columnaris disease in wild and cultured freshwater fish and is a major problem for sustainable aquaculture worldwide. The F. columnare type IX secretion system (T9SS) secretes many proteins and is required for virulence.

Persistent BK Polyomavirus Viruria is Associated with Accumulation of VP1 Mutations and Neutralization Escape.

To investigate the relationship between neutralization escape and persistent high-level BK polyomavirus replication after kidney transplant (KTx), VP1 sequences were determined by Sanger and next-generation sequencing in longitudinal samples from KTx recipients with persistent high-level viruria (non-controllers) compared to patients who suppressed viruria (controllers). The infectivity and neutralization resistance of representative VP1 mutants were investigated using pseudotype viruses. In all patients, the virus population was initially dominated by wild-type VP1 sequences, then non-synonymous VP1 mutations accumulated over time in non-controllers.

Colonization kinetics and implantation follow-up of the sewage microbiome in an urban wastewater treatment plant.

The Seine-Morée wastewater treatment plant (SM_WWTP), with a capacity of 100,000 population-equivalents, was fed with raw domestic wastewater during all of its start-up phase. Its microbiome resulted from the spontaneous evolution of wastewater-borne microorganisms. This rare opportunity allowed us to analyze the sequential microbiota colonization and implantation follow up during the start-up phase of this WWTP by means of regular sampling carried out over 8 months until the establishment of a stable and functional ecosystem.

Draft Genome Sequence of the Fish Pathogen Flavobacterium columnare Strain MS-FC-4.

MS-FC-4 is a highly virulent genetic group 1 (formerly genomovar I) strain isolated from rainbow trout (). The draft genome consists of three contigs totaling 3,449,277 bp with 2,811 predicted open reading frames. MS-FC-4 is a model strain for functional genomic analyses.

The Type IX Secretion System Is Required for Virulence of the Fish Pathogen Flavobacterium columnare.

, a member of the phylum , causes columnaris disease in wild and aquaculture-reared freshwater fish. The mechanisms responsible for columnaris disease are not known. Many members of the phylum use type IX secretion systems (T9SSs) to secrete enzymes, adhesins, and proteins involved in gliding motility.

Complete Genome Sequence of Strain OSU THCO2-90, Used for Functional Genetic Analysis.

We report here the complete annotated genome sequence of OSU THCO2-90, isolated from Coho salmon () in Oregon. The genome consists of a circular chromosome with 2,343 predicted open reading frames. This strain has proved to be a valuable tool for functional genomics.

From the Flavobacterium genus to the phylum Bacteroidetes: genomic analysis of dnd gene clusters.

Phosphorothioate modification of DNA and the corresponding DNA degradation (Dnd) phenotype that occurs during gel electrophoresis are caused by dnd genes. Although widely distributed among Bacteria and Archaea, dnd genes have been found in only very few, taxonomically unrelated, bacterial species so far. Here, we report the presence of dnd genes and their associated Dnd phenotype in two Flavobacterium species.

Complete genome sequence of Flavobacterium indicum GPSTA100-9T, isolated from warm spring water.

We report here the complete annotated genome sequence of Flavobacterium indicum CIP 109464(T) (= GPTSA100-9(T)), isolated from warm spring water in Assam, India. The genome sequence of F. indicum revealed a number of interesting features and genes in relation to its environmental lifestyle.

Complete genome sequence of the fish pathogen Flavobacterium branchiophilum.

Members of the genus Flavobacterium occur in a variety of ecological niches and represent an interesting diversity of lifestyles. Flavobacterium branchiophilum is the main causative agent of bacterial gill disease, a severe condition affecting various cultured freshwater fish species worldwide, in particular salmonids in Canada and Japan. We report here the complete genome sequence of strain FL-15 isolated from a diseased sheatfish (Silurus glanis) in Hungary.
