Shotgun Genome Sequence of a Yersinia enterocolitica Isolate from the Philippines

Abstract

The first shotgun genome sequence of a microbial pathogen from the Philippines is reported. Yersinia enterocolitica subsp. palearctica strain PhRBD_Ye1 is the first Y. enterocolitica strain sequenced from an animal source, swine, which is a natural source of yersiniosis. The closest phylogenetic match is a human clinical isolate from Germany.

Draft Genome Sequence of a Clinical Strain of Yersinia enterocolitica (IP10393) of Bioserotype 4/O:3 from France

“…To date, only two genome sequences of Y. enterocolitica 4/O:3 strains are publically available: one clinical strain from Germany (8) and one swine isolate from The Philippines (9). The availability of more genome sequences of this common and widespread enteric pathogen would help in increasing our understanding of its diversity and facilitating the development of new molecular diagnostic tools.…”

Genome Sequences of Four Yersinia enterocolitica Bioserotype 4/O:3 Isolates from Mammals

“…Among these, four European clinical isolates (4, 10) and one Philippine isolate from swine (11), all belonging to the prevailing bioserotype 4/O:3, are currently available. Whole-genome sequences of Y. enterocolitica 4/O:3 isolates from animal sources would provide a comprehensive knowledge of the epidemiology and transmission of this frequently encountered bioserotype.…”
