Enterococcus faecalis 24FS is a bacteriocin-producing, multiply antibiotic-resistant, and potentially virulent bacterium isolated from healthy infant feces. The draft 2.9-Mb genome sequence revealed 2,968 protein-encoding genes; 11 antibiotic resistance, 8 virulence, and 3 bacteriocin genes; and 2 plasmids, 4 prophages, 30 insertion sequence (IS) elements, 1 transposon, and 1 integron.

Here, we introduce the 2.8-Mbp draft genome of Enterococcus faecalis strain UMB0843, isolated from the female urinary tract. E. faecalis is a leading cause of nosocomial infections, and many strains are often resistant to multiple antibiotics. We focus our genome analysis on the multiple genes involved in antibiotic resistance in this strain.

ABSTRACT A strain of Enterococcus faecalis was isolated from catheterized urine. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of this isolate, E. faecalis UMB1309. Analysis of the genome revealed multiple genes coding for virulence factors, as well as genes associated with antibiotic resistance.

ABSTRACT Here, we present the draft genome sequence of Enterococcus faecalis UMB7780, isolated from the female urinary tract. The genome size is 3,005,901 bp, with a GC content of 37.36%, genome coverage of 179×, and an N50 score of 169,627 bp. Genome analysis identified evidence of antibiotic resistance, as well as intact prophages.

ABSTRACT Enterococcus faecalis is a clinically significant member of the human microbiome. Three CRISPR-Cas loci are located in conserved locations. Previous studies provide evidence that E. faecalis strains with functional CRISPR-Cas genes are negatively correlated with antibiotic resistance. Here, we report the genome sequence of an unusual strain possessing all three CRISPR-Cas loci.

ABSTRACT We report the draft genome sequence of Enterococcus faecalis DD14, a strain isolated from meconium of a healthy newborn at Roubaix Hospital (France). The strain displayed antagonism against a set of Gram-positive bacteria through concomitant production of lactic acid and bacteriocin. The genome has a size of 2,893,365 bp and a 37.3% G+C ratio and is predicted to contain at least 2,755 coding sequences and 62 RNAs.

ABSTRACT We report here the draft genome sequence of Ezakiella peruensis strain M6.X2T. The draft genome is 1,672,788 bp long and harbors 1,589 predicted protein-encoding genes, including 26 antibiotic resistance genes with 1 gene encoding vancomycin resistance. The genome also exhibits 1 clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat region and 333 genes acquired by horizontal gene transfer.

ABSTRACT Here, we present the draft genome sequence of Corynebacterium aurimucosum UMB7769, isolated from the female urinary tract. The size of the genome is 2,731,818 bp, assembled in 50 contigs, with an observed GC content of 60.9% and an N50 score of 129,518 bp. Annotation revealed 31 antibiotic resistance genes.

We report here the draft genome sequence of a Chryseobacterium indologenes strain, isolated from a blood culture of a 2.2-year-old child admitted to the hospital for vomiting and coughing. The genome was composed of 5,063,674 bp and had 37.04% GC content. We detected 4,796 genes with predicted protein-coding functions, including those associated with antibiotic resistance.
