Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni M1. Following a research visit to a poultry abattoir, one surveillance team member developed campylobacteriosis. We isolated the M1 strain (laboratory designation 99/308) from both the patient and from the poultry flock sampled at the abattoir, thus providing a clear-cut case of the direct transmission of disease from poultry to human. We have determined the genome sequence of the M1 strain and compared it to other previously published Campylobacter genomes. We found the M1 genome to contain many genes related to chicken colonization which are not ubiquitous in the published genomes. The M1 genome represents a confirmed pathogen and chicken colonizer useful for further comparative studies. Less...
