Abstract
Lactobacillus jensenii is a beneficial and prominent community member within both the vaginal and female urinary microbiota. As more genomes for L. jensenii strains are made publicly available, we gain more knowledge about this beneficial community member. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of L. jensenii UMB7766, which was isolated from a urine specimen from a catheterized female patient with recurrent urinary tract infections.
Highlights
Lactobacillus jensenii is a beneficial and prominent community member within both the vaginal and female urinary microbiota
At 34.32%, the GC content of this strain is similar to that of other L. jensenii strains available in GenBank
The complete genome of L. jensenii UMB7766 was compared to those of all publicly available strains of this species, including other isolates from the urinary tract and isolates from the vaginal and gut microbiota. This comparison identified L. jensenii UMB3442, which was isolated from the female urinary microbiota, as having the closest related genome
