Abstract
Porphyromonas gingivalis is associated with oral and systemic diseases. Strain-specific P. gingivalis invasion phenotypes have been correlated with disease presentation in infected laboratory animals. Here, we present the genome sequence of AJW4, a minimally invasive strain, with a single contig of 2,372,492 bp and a G+C content of 48.27%.

Summary
Porphyromonas gingivalis is associated with oral and systemic diseases. Strain-specific P. gingivalis invasion phenotypes have been correlated with disease presentation in infected laboratory animals. We present the genome sequence of AJW4, a minimally invasive strain, with a single contig of 2,372,492 bp and a G؉C content of 48.27%. Porphyromonas gingivalis is an anaerobic bacterium [1] found in the oral tissues of chronic periodontitis patients [2, 3] and selected nonoral tissues of systemic disease patients [4,5,6].
