# Complete genome sequences of 11 Streptococcus pneumoniae strains isolated from acute infectious purpura fulminans, sepsis, and pneumonia

## TL;DR

This paper reports the full genome sequences of 11 Streptococcus pneumoniae strains from patients with severe infections.

## Contribution

The study provides new complete genome sequences of S. pneumoniae strains associated with acute infectious purpura fulminans, sepsis, and pneumonia.

## Key findings

- Genomes were sequenced using hybrid assembly of long and short reads.
- Two strains were from patients with acute infectious purpura fulminans, six from sepsis, and three from pneumonia.
- The isolates were obtained from Japanese patients.

## Abstract

The complete genome sequences of 11 Japanese Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates were determined by hybrid assembly of long and short reads, including two strains isolated from patients with acute infectious purpura fulminans, six strains from patients with sepsis, and three strains from patients with pneumonia.
