Draft genome sequence of Kodamaea ohmeri, an emerging human pathogen
Kodamaea ohmeri is recognized as an emerging human pathogen responsible for severe infections. However, the lack of genome sequence for this pathogenic fungus hampers molecular and genetic investigations of its pathogenic mechanism. In this study, we reported the draft genome of K. ohmeri 3873 isolated from clinical samples. The genome has a size of 13.86 Mb, including 3734 putative genes with 54.22 % of dispersed and tandem repeat sequences. Further bioinformatics analysis found 159 carbohydrate-active enzymes, 19 CYP genes and 44 secondary metabolite genes in K. ohmeri genome. A total of 657 pathogenicity related genes (including multidrug resistance genes) and 216 fungal virulence factors (172 genes associated with human diseases) were identified, which were more than those of other seven strains, suggesting the potential of K. ohmeri as an emerging human pathogen. This study provides a foundation for future works on the biology, molecular pathogenesis, and virulence of K. ohmeri.
期刊介绍:
Genomics is a forum for describing the development of genome-scale technologies and their application to all areas of biological investigation.
As a journal that has evolved with the field that carries its name, Genomics focuses on the development and application of cutting-edge methods, addressing fundamental questions with potential interest to a wide audience. Our aim is to publish the highest quality research and to provide authors with rapid, fair and accurate review and publication of manuscripts falling within our scope.
