The whole-genome sequence of Mycobacterium bolletii M24, isolated from the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of a Malaysian patient, is reported here. The circular chromosome of 5,507,730 bp helped to clarify the taxonomic position of this organism within the M. abscessus complex and revealed the presence of proteins potentially important for pathogenicity in a human host.
本文报道了从一名马来西亚患者的支气管肺泡灌洗液中分离出的分枝杆菌 M24 的全基因组序列。该环状染色体长 5507730bp,有助于阐明该生物体在脓肿分枝杆菌复合体中的分类地位,并揭示了存在潜在与人类宿主致病性相关的蛋白质。
