Mycobacterium bovis W-1171 was isolated from a wild boar living in a free-ranging field in Gyeonggido, South Korea. The whole-genome sequence of this strain was determined in 50 contigs, which was 4,304,865 bp with a 65.57% G+C content. In total 3,945 protein-coding genes were predicted from this assembly.

Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) and other tic disorders (TDs) have a substantial genetic component with their heritability estimated at between 60 and 80%. Here we propose an oligogenic risk score of TDs using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from a group of Polish GTS patients, their families, and control samples (n = 278). In this study, we first reviewed the literature to obtain a preliminary list of 84 GTS/TD candidate genes.

Unlabelled: The complex (MAC) is a common causative agent causing nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) pulmonary disease worldwide. Whole-genome sequencing was performed on a total of 203 retrospective MAC isolates from respiratory specimens. Phylogenomic analysis identified eight subspecies and species.

The emergence of carbapenem-resistant (CRKP) poses a significant public health threat, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) with limited surveillance and treatment options. This study examines the genetic diversity, resistance patterns, and transmission dynamics of 66 CRKP isolates recovered over 5 years (2015-2019) after the first case of CRKP was identified at a tertiary care hospital in Lima, Peru. Our findings reveal a shift from to as the dominant carbapenemase gene after 2017.

Human noroviruses are the leading cause of non-bacterial shellfish-associated gastroenteritis. In 2022, a multi-jurisdictional norovirus outbreak associated with contaminated oysters occurred that involved hundreds of illnesses. Here, we conducted genetic analysis on 30 clinical samples associated with this oyster outbreak.

The human skin commensal produces diverse, therapeutically relevant bacteriocins. We report the complete whole-genome sequence of the nasal isolate B273, which contains a plasmid with the biosynthetic gene cluster for epidermicin NI01, a broad-spectrum type II antimicrobial peptide.
