Mycobacterium tuberculosis of the Beijing Modern Sublineage displays increased virulence when compared to strains of the Ancient Sublineage. Here, we report the full genome of strains of the two sublineages isolated from tuberculosis patients from Brazil, Mozambique and Russia. The DNA was extracted using the Charge Switch gDNA bacteria DNA Mini Kit (Invitrogen) andpaired-end library prepared using the Nextera XT DNA library kit, followed by 2100-bp sequencing on an Illumina HiSeq2500 at the High Throughput Sequencing Platform of the Oswaldo Cruz Institute (Fiocruz, RJ).
