Complete Genome Sequence of Probiotic Strain Lactobacillus acidophilus La-14

Genome Announc. 2013 Jun 20;1(3):e00376-13. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00376-13.

Abstract

We present the 1,991,830-bp complete genome sequence of Lactobacillus acidophilus strain La-14 (SD-5212). Comparative genomic analysis revealed 99.98% similarity overall to the L. acidophilus NCFM genome. Globally, 111 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (95 SNPs, 16 indels) were observed throughout the genome. Also, a 416-bp deletion in the LA14_1146 sugar ABC transporter was identified.
