The soil bacterium sp. strain AK 1817 was isolated from a tropical soil sample collected in Taiwan. Strain AK 1817 biotransforms the ergostane triterpenoid antcin K from the fungus Antrodia cinnamomea. The genome was sequenced using the PacBio RS II platform and consists of one chromosome of 4,096,020 bp, comprising 3,907 protein-coding genes, 75 tRNAs, 30 rRNAs, 5 noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), and 100 pseudogenes.

Article Synopsis
- A study in Pará, Northern Brazil, identified a unique strain of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) called SIT2517/T1, with a focus on its transmission dynamics.
- Researchers utilized various genetic testing methods, including whole-genome sequencing, to analyze 28 isolates, confirming their distinct sublineage and highlighting discrepancies in drug resistance testing for some antibiotics.
- The findings indicated a high probability of direct transmission among these isolates in urban areas, emphasizing the necessity for increased tuberculosis genomic surveillance in the Brazilian Amazon.
