Abstract
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Pediococcus acidilactici strain LPBC161, a lactic acid bacterium isolated from mature coffee cherries in Brazil. The genome sequence of P. acidilactici LPBC161 provides valuable information on the mechanisms of adaptation and metabolism of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in the environment and stressor factors of coffee processing.
Highlights
We report the draft genome sequence of Pediococcus acidilactici strain LPBC161, a lactic acid bacterium isolated from mature coffee cherries in Brazil
Seventy-eight unique genes, including genes related with the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent phosphotransferase system and transcription regulation, were reported
P. acidilactici LPBC161 features a high number of specific genes encoding the PEP-phosphotransferase system for sorbose, mannose, and fructose, which are present in coffee pulp (8)
Summary
We report the draft genome sequence of Pediococcus acidilactici strain LPBC161, a lactic acid bacterium isolated from mature coffee cherries in Brazil. The draft genome of P. acidilactici LPBC161 was 1,960,506 bp, with a GϩC content of 42.2% and N50 value of 18,140 bp. The genome annotation identified 2,019 coding sequences (CDS).
