title: Draft Genome Sequences of Clinical Isolates of Serotype 6EStreptococcus pneumoniaefrom Five Asian Countries.
abstract: Although serotype 6EStreptococcus pneumoniaeconsistently expresses capsules of either vaccine-serotype 6A or 6B, certain genetic variants of serotype 6E may evade vaccine induced immunity. Thus, draft genome sequences from five clinical isolates of serotype 6E from each of five different Asian countries have been generated to provide insight into the genomic diversity in serotype 6E strains.
