Abstract
This study presents the whole genome sequencing (WGS) and functional analysis of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LP8, a promising probiotic strain, is presented in this research. The genome comprises a 3.23 Mbp circular chromosome and three plasmids including plasmid1_LP8 (58,764 bp), plasmid2_LP8 (45,003 bp), and plasmid3_LP8 (7985 bp). Functional annotation identified 3151 coding sequences (CDSs) mapped to 209 RAST subsystems, alongside biosynthesis gene clusters encoding Plantaricin J and other secondary metabolites such as RiPP-like peptides and terpenes. Safety analysis revealed no acquired antimicrobial resistance gene (AMR) or virulence genes, with only intrinsic resistance to certain antibiotics. In vitro analysis confirmed its sensitivity to antibiotics such as ampicillin, erythromycin, and tetracycline, and its hemolytic activity displayed an α-hemoly-sis pattern. These findings confirm L. plantarum LP8 as a safeand effective probiotic candidate with significant potential for antimicrobial and biotechnological applications.
期刊介绍:
Data in Brief provides a way for researchers to easily share and reuse each other''s datasets by publishing data articles that: -Thoroughly describe your data, facilitating reproducibility. -Make your data, which is often buried in supplementary material, easier to find. -Increase traffic towards associated research articles and data, leading to more citations. -Open up doors for new collaborations. Because you never know what data will be useful to someone else, Data in Brief welcomes submissions that describe data from all research areas.
