Abstract
We present here the complete genome sequence of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis strain 12C, isolated from a sheep abscess in the Brazil. The sequencing was performed with the Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine (PGM) system, a fragment library, and a coverage of ~48-fold. The genome presented is a circular chromosome with 2,337,451 bp in length, 2,119 coding sequences, 12 rRNAs, 49 tRNAs, and a G+C content of 52.83%.
Highlights
We present here the complete genome sequence of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis strain 12C, isolated from a sheep abscess in the Brazil
This species is responsible for diseases that cause great economic losses in the whole world: caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) in sheep and goats (C. pseudotuberculosis bv. ovis) and ulcerative lymphangitis in horses (C. pseudotuberculosis bv. equi) (2)
We present the complete genome sequence of C. pseudotuberculosis strain 12C. 12C was isolated from abscess of a sheep diagnosed with CLA in Pernambuco, Brazil, in 2009
Summary
We present here the complete genome sequence of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis strain 12C, isolated from a sheep abscess in the Brazil. Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis is a Gram-positive bacterium that belongs to the CMNR group, which includes species of the genera Corynebacterium, Mycobacterium, Nocardia, and Rhodococcus (1). This species is responsible for diseases that cause great economic losses in the whole world: caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) in sheep and goats With the advent of the next-generation sequencing platforms, new strains have been sequenced, and 22 strains are currently deposited in the database on the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).
