Composite Long- and Short-Read Sequencing Delivers a Complete Genome Sequence of B04Sm5, a Reutericyclin- and Mutanocyclin-Producing Strain of Streptococcus mutans.

Abstract

Streptococcus mutans strain B04Sm5 was recently shown to inhibit the growth of neighboring commensal bacteria using reutericyclin, an acylated tetramic acid produced by the muc biosynthetic gene cluster. Here, a complete genome sequence of B04Sm5 is reported.
