title: Draft Genome Sequence of Enterococcus faecalis MB5259.
abstract: In this study, we present a draft genome sequence of Enterococcus faecalis MB5259, a promising probiotic strain. The identified differences and common features between this strain and reference strains will assist in better understanding the mechanism of antibacterial action and in developing novel probiotics.
