The genome sequence is 2,885,242 bp with a G + C content of 36.5%. The genomic analysis provides significant insights into the antibiotic resistance genes of the genus Kurthia. ## Full-text entities - **Diseases:** urinary tract infection (MESH:D014552), acute diarrhea (MESH:D000208), pilonidal cysts (MESH:D010864) - **Chemicals:** LB broth (-), trimethoprim (MESH:D014295), lincosamide (MESH:D055231), tetracycline (MESH:D013752) - **Species:** Homo sapiens (human, species) [taxon 9606], Kurthia zopfii (species) [taxon 1650], Gallus gallus (bantam, species) [taxon 9031] ## Full text _Full body text omitted from this summary view._ Fetch the complete paper as Markdown: https://tomesphere.com/paper/PMC11984217/full.md ## References 12 references — full list in the complete paper: https://tomesphere.com/paper/PMC11984217/full.md --- Source: https://tomesphere.com/paper/PMC11984217
