Despite the importance of dextran in various industrial applications and the need to massify
your production, the mechanism of expression and regulation of dextransucrases in
producer strains such as Leuconostoc mesenteroides strain IBUN 91.2.98 has not been
well documented. The development of second-generation sequencing methods and the use
of bioinformatic tools will make it possible to sequence, assemble, and evaluate complete
of genomes at relatively low cost guided by a reference genome of L. mesenteroides subsp.
mesenteroides ATCC 8293, to help the assembly process.
Sequencing produced a total of 1.47 Gb of raw data, which after trimming and quality control
were generated 1.40 Gb (7.78 X deep) which was used for assembly. An assembly for
Leuconostoc mesenteroides strain IBUN 91.2.98 with a length of 2,064 Mpb was obtained.
The assembly length represented 85% of the estimated size of the reference genome of L.
mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides ATCC 8293. Less...
