Abstract

Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is an important cause of human illness, including pneumonia and acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We report here the draft genome of an isolate of NTHi collected from the sputum of a patient presenting with COPD in Tasmania, Australia.

Highlights

  • A 1,914,787-bp draft genome consisting of 68 contigs (Ն200 bp) that covered 86.7% of the reference H. influenzae 86-028NP genome [12]

  • The draft genome was annotated using RASTtk [15,16,17], which identified a total of 2,019 genes consisting of 1,960 coding sequences and 59 RNA genes

  • This study presents the published genome sequence assembly of an Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) isolate from a case of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Tasmania

Summary

Introduction

A 1,914,787-bp draft genome consisting of 68 contigs (Ն200 bp) that covered 86.7% of the reference H. influenzae 86-028NP genome [12]. The N50 value was 66,703 bp, and the overall GC content was 38.1%. The genome assembly quality, including completeness with respect to the reference genome, was determined using the QUAST quality assessment tool [13].
