Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strain:ELPL27 | isolate:fecal samples from pregnant Hu sheep Genome sequencing
Submitting the complete genome of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum to the NCBI database aims to facilitate global scientific data sharing and collaborative research, supporting functional characterization, evolutionary analysis, and standardized management of bacterial strains. Its significance lies in advancing probiotic development by revealing key genes related to acid tolerance, bacteriocin synthesis, or GABA metabolism, thereby providing a theoretical foundation for designing functional foods, natural preservatives, or personalized probiotic formulations. Additionally, genomic data guides antibiotic resistance evaluation and strain optimization (e.g., CRISPR-based enhancement) and supports clinical studies (e.g., microbiota intervention for metabolic disorders). Practical applications span fundamental research (gene annotation, phylogenetic studies), industrial biotechnology (metabolic engineering, strain improvement), and healthcare (targeted probiotic development), ultimately translating traditional microbial resource preservation into modern biotechnological innovation.
