Streptococcus thermophilus MN-ZLW-002 was originally isolated from traditionally fermented Chinese dairy products. One of the strain-dependent characteristics of this bacterium is its ability to produce exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This study determined and analyzed the genome sequence of MN-ZLW-002. Its complete genome comprised 2,046 genes and 1,848,520 nucleotides with an average GC content of 39%. The EPS cluster of MN-ZLW-002 includes 25 open reading frames (ORFs), and some results indicate a horizontal gene transfer between MN-ZLW-002 and other lactic acid bacteria (LAB).
嗜热链球菌 MN-ZLW-002 最初是从传统发酵的中国乳制品中分离出来的。该细菌的菌株依赖性特征之一是其产生胞外多糖（EPS）的能力。本研究确定并分析了 MN-ZLW-002 的基因组序列。其完整基因组由 2046 个基因和 1848520 个核苷酸组成，平均 GC 含量为 39%。MN-ZLW-002 的 EPS 簇包含 25 个开放阅读框（ORFs），一些结果表明 MN-ZLW-002 和其他乳酸菌（LAB）之间存在水平基因转移。
