Comment

Actinomyces sp. Oral taxon 171 F0337 (NCBI Accession number for 16S rRNA gene: AF385553) is a member of the Firmicutes division of the domain bacteria and has been isolated from the oral cavity.

This is a reference genome for the ... Human Microbiome Project. This project is co-owned with the Human Microbiome Project DACC.

Bacteria provided by Floyd E. Dewhirst, DDS, PhD and Jacques Izard, PhD (Department of Molecular Genetics, The Forsyth Institute, 140 The Fenway, Boston, Massachusetts, 02115). Funded by NIDCR contract U01-DE016937, "A Foundation for the Oral Microbiome and Metagenome". The original isolate was from the collection of Dr. L. V. Holdeman Moore and the late Dr. W.E. Moore formerly at the Anaerobe Laboratory at The Virginia Polytechnic Institute.

Coding sequences were predicted using GeneMark v3.3 and Glimmer2 v2.13. Intergenic regions not spanned by GeneMark and Glimmer2 were blasted against NCBI's non-redundant (NR) database and predictions generated based on protein alignments. tRNA genes were determined using tRNAscan-SE 1.23 and non-coding RNA genes by RNAmmer-1.2 and Rfam v8.0. Gene names are generated at the contig level and may not necessarily reflect any known order or orientation between contigs. 

The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), National Institutes of Health (NIH) is funding the sequence characterization of the Actinomyces sp. Oral taxon 171 F0337 genome.
