Abstract

Here we report the draft genome sequence of the Latilactobacillus curvatus PN39MY strain. The strain was isolated from Lithuanian traditionally (homemade) fermented cucumber. The genome consisted of 83 contigs with a total size of 1,899,018 bp, an N50 of 40562 and a GC% of 42.1. After sequence trimming, 83 contigs were annotated and 1910 genes were coding sequences. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) between PN39MY and Latilactobacillus curvatus_ZJUNIT8 was 99.45% identifying the strain as Latilactobacillus curvatus. No genes related to antimicrobial resistance or virulence factors were found. The data presented here can be used in comparative genomics to identify antimicrobial resistant genes, plasmids and/or virulence factors that may be present in related Latilactobacillus species. The draft genome sequence data was deposited at NCBI under Bioproject with the accession number PRJNA941180.
