Draft Genome Sequence of Acholeplasma laidlawii, a Common Contaminant of Cell Cultures.

ABSTRACT: Mollicutes are important cell culture contaminants which may eventually affect the results of biological assays or affect their interpretation. Acholeplasma laidlawii is one of the most frequent contaminants of cell cultures. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of A. laidlawii strain MDBK/IPV, recovered from Madin-Darby bovine kidney (MDBK) cells.
