Abstract
Coagulase-negative staphylococci are frequently isolated from cases of subclinical bovine mastitis. Reported here is a draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus simulans UMC-CNS-990, an isolate recovered from a chronic intramammary infection of a Holstein cow. Unexpectedly, a cluster of genes encoding gas vesicle proteins was found within the 2,755-kb genome.
Highlights
Little is known about the pathogenesis and niche adaptation of coagulase-negative staphylococci that cause bovine mastitis (1)
We report the determination of a draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus simulans UMC-CNS-990
Auto-annotation of the contigs was performed at the National Center for Biotechnology Information using the PGAP pipeline with 2,605 open reading frames (ORFs) annotated using GeneMarkSϩ
Summary
Little is known about the pathogenesis and niche adaptation of coagulase-negative staphylococci that cause bovine mastitis (1). We report the determination of a draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus simulans UMC-CNS-990. This strain was isolated in September 2005 from milk of the right rear mammary quarter of a Holstein cow at the University of Missouri Dairy (under IACUC approval).
