Abstract
We report the 3.78-Mbp high-quality draft assembly of the genome from a clinical isolate of Acinetobacter nosocomialis called strain M2 (previously known as Acinetobacter baumannii strain M2).
Highlights
A. nosocomialis strain M2, isolated in 1996 from a hip infection of a patient at Cleveland MetroHealth Systems (Cleveland, OH), has been studied in several laboratories
Strain M2 was classified by multilocus sequence typing (MLST) as belonging to the A. baumannii species
Two currently available MLST schemes were used to retype strain M2
Summary
A. nosocomialis strain M2, isolated in 1996 from a hip infection of a patient at Cleveland MetroHealth Systems (Cleveland, OH), has been studied in several laboratories. An acyl-homoserine lactone autoinducer synthase from strain M2 has been isolated and characterized (3). Nonnative acyl-homoserine lactones have been shown to attenuate strain M2 quorum sensing (4).
