Klebsiella pneumoniae

Whole sequence shotgun

Project: Collaborative
State of the project: In progress



Collaborations :

Pathogénie Microbienne Moléculaire - INSERM 786 - Institut Pasteur - Paris, France

Genotyping of Pathogens and Public Health Platform - Microbial Population Genetics group - Institut Pasteur - Paris, France

Plateforme Intégration et Analyse Génomiques - Institut Pasteur - Paris, France

Genoscope is sequencing 3 strains of K. pneumoniae and 1 strain of K. ozaenae. The estimated genome size for these species is around 5,5 Mb. Each genome will be sequenced by pyrosquencing (454 - Roche) to a 20x genome size coverage.

Errors will be corrected by short fragments sequencing using the Solexa-Illumina technology to a 50x coverage.

An automatic genome annotation will be performed by Genoscope and the Institut Pasteur.
