Abstract

This study reports the complete genome sequence of Heyndrickxia (Bacillus) coagulans BC99, a promising human probiotic strain isolated from the fecal sample of a healthy infant in Hailaer Inner Mongolia. The genome sequence of BC99 contains a 3,655,496-bp circular chromosome with a GC content of 46.23%. Genome annotation predicted 3,273 protein-coding genes.
