Abstract
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Trichosporon domesticum JCM 9580, isolated from the house of a patient with summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis (SHP) in Japan. This genomic information will help elucidate the mechanisms of the development of SHP.
Highlights
We report the draft genome sequence of Trichosporon domesticum Japan Collection of Microorganisms (JCM) 9580, isolated from the house of a patient with summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis (SHP) in Japan
Repeated inhalation of arthroconidia produced by Trichosporon species leads to the development of type III and IV allergies, known as summertype hypersensitivity pneumonitis (SHP), for which cough and fever are the chief complaints [1]
Trichosporon species are divided into three groups; representative species of the causative agent in each group are Trichosporon dermatis for group I, Trichosporon asahii for group II, and Trichosporon domesticum and Trichosporon montevideense for group III [2, 3]
Summary
We report the draft genome sequence of Trichosporon domesticum JCM 9580, isolated from the house of a patient with summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis (SHP) in Japan. Repeated inhalation of arthroconidia produced by Trichosporon species leads to the development of type III and IV allergies, known as summertype hypersensitivity pneumonitis (SHP), for which cough and fever are the chief complaints [1]. T. domesticum JCM 9580 was first isolated from the house of an SHP patient in Japan as a novel yeast species [4].
