Bibek G C, Anders Jensen, Chenggang Wu
TL;DR
This paper presents the full genome of a penicillin-resistant bacteria from a tonsillitis patient, offering clues about antibiotic resistance.
Contribution
The study provides the first complete genome sequence of a penicillin-resistant F. necrophorum subsp. funduliforme isolate.
Findings
The genome includes a 2,440,359 bp chromosome and a 9,887 bp plasmid.
The sequence reveals genetic factors linked to penicillin resistance in F. necrophorum.
Abstract
We report the complete genome sequence of a penicillin-resistant Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. funduliforme isolate, AJ79, from a tonsillitis patient. The AJ79 genome consists of a chromosome (2,440,359 bp) and plasmid (9,887 bp), providing insights into the genetic basis of penicillin resistance in F. necrophorum and its implications for treating tonsillitis.
