Abstract

The article presents Ligilactobacillus salivarius 2102-15 whole genome sequencing data generated by using Illumina and Oxford Nanopore platforms. The genome of the isolate consists of a chromosome and two plasmids. The data on bacteriocin-encoding genes present in the genome were collected through genome annotation and by using a BAGEL4 tool. The advantages and limitations of the approaches are highlighted. The data indicate the presence of different types of bacteriocin and immunity protein-encoding genes on both the chromosome and one of the plasmids. The data obtained represents interest to researchers working in the areas related to whole genome sequencing and analysis, as well as being useful for the identification of novel probiotic bacteria and their biomedical applications.
