Draft genome sequence of Bacillus cereus strain LCT-BC244

J Bacteriol. 2012 Jul;194(13):3549. doi: 10.1128/JB.00580-12.

Abstract

Bacillus cereus is a prevalent, soil-dwelling, Gram-positive bacterium. Some strains are harmful to humans and cause food-borne illness, while other strains can be beneficial as probiotics for animals. To gain insight into the bacterial genetic determinants, we report the genome sequence of a strain, LCT-BC244, which was isolated from CGMCC 1.230.
