Complete genome sequence of the B12-producing Shimwellia blattae strain DSM 4481, isolated from a cockroach.

ABSTRACT: Here we announce the complete genome sequence of the coenzyme B(12)-producing enteric bacterium Shimwellia blattae (formerly Escherichia blattae). The genome consists of a single chromosome (4,158,636 bp). The genome size is smaller than that of most other enteric bacteria. Genome comparison revealed significant differences from the Escherichia coli genome.
