Brachyspira murdochii Stanton et al. 1992 is a non-pathogenic, host-associated spirochete of the family Brachyspiraceae. Initially isolated from the intestinal content of a healthy swine, the 'group B spirochaetes' were first described as Serpulina murdochii. Members of the family Brachyspiraceae are of great phylogenetic interest because of the extremely isolated location of this family within the phylum 'Spirochaetes'. Here we describe the features of this organism, together with the complete genome sequence and annotation. This is the first completed genome sequence of a type strain of a member of the family Brachyspiraceae and only the second genome sequence from a member of the genus Brachyspira. The 3,241,804 bp long genome with its 2,893 protein-coding and 40 RNA genes is a part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea project.
默多克短螺旋体(Brachyspira murdochii)由斯坦顿等人于1992年发现,是短螺旋体科的一种非致病性、与宿主相关的螺旋体。最初从一头健康猪的肠道内容物中分离出来,“B组螺旋体”最初被描述为默多克蛇形螺旋体(Serpulina murdochii)。短螺旋体科的成员具有极大的系统发育研究价值,因为该科在螺旋体门中处于极为孤立的位置。在此,我们描述了这种微生物的特征,以及其完整的基因组序列和注释。这是短螺旋体科成员模式菌株的首个完整基因组序列,也是短螺旋体属成员的第二个基因组序列。这个长度为3,241,804 bp的基因组,包含2,893个蛋白质编码基因和40个RNA基因,是细菌和古菌基因组百科全书项目的一部分。
