Genome insights of Enterococcus raffinosus CX012922, isolated from the feces of a Crohn's disease patient.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Enterococcus raffinosus is one of the Enterococcus species that often cause nosocomial infections. To date, only one E. raffinosus genome has been completely assembled, and the genomic features have not been characterized. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the strain CX012922, isolated from the feces of a Crohn's disease patient, and perform a comparative genome analysis to the relevant Enterococcus spp. strains in silico.

Results

De novo assembly of the sequencing reads of the strain CX012922 generated a circular genome of 2.83 Mb and a circular megaplasmid of 0.98 Mb. Phylogenomic analysis revealed that the strain CX012922 belonged to the E. raffinosus species. By comparative genome analysis, we found that some strains previously identified as E. r
