Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: ABSTRACT We collected a urine specimen from a 20-year-old male, cultured it on Chrom-agar Enterococcus , identified it with VITEK2, and whole-genome sequenced it using the PacBio RSII. The genome was 3,111,621 nucleotides long with a GC% of 37.6%. It was identified as a human pathogen with a 92.3% probability and is available on NCBI with an accession ID of JBFBPS000000000.1 .
