Streptococcus pseudopneumoniae is a member of the viridans group streptococci (VGS) whose pathogenic significance is unclear. We announce the complete genome sequence of S. pseudopneumoniae IS7493. The genome sequence will assist in the characterization of this new organism and facilitate the development of accurate diagnostic assays to distinguish it from Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus mitis.
肺炎链球菌是草绿色链球菌(VGS)群的一员,其致病性尚不清楚。我们宣布肺炎链球菌 IS7493 的完整基因组序列。该基因组序列将有助于该新生物体的特征描述,并有助于开发准确的诊断检测方法,将其与肺炎链球菌和酿脓链球菌区分开来。
