Draft genome sequence of Fusobacterium nucleatum ChDC F128, isolated from a periodontitis lesion.

Abstract

Fusobacterium nucleatum is classified into five subspecies. F. nucleatum ChDC F128 was isolated from a periodontitis lesion and proposed as a new subspecies based on the comparison of the nucleotide sequences of the RNA polymerase beta subunit and zinc protease genes. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of the strain.
