The raw data of the second-generation sequencing of a Mucor strain isolated from a clinical patient.
This project includes whole-genome sequencing data of a Mucor circinelloides isolate recovered from a patient with post-traumatic cutaneous mucormycosis complicated by angioinvasion and necrotizing soft tissue infection. The strain was obtained from debrided tissue of a 55-year-old immunocompetent male who sustained a severe crush injury of the right lower leg with heavy soil contamination in an industrial accident. Clinical presentation included rapidly progressive necrotizing infection, septic shock, and angioinvasion confirmed by radiologic and histopathologic evidence.Whole-genome sequencing was performed using next-generation sequencing to enable accurate species identification, phylogenetic characterization, and genomic analysis of this clinically important angioinvasive fungal pathogen. The dataset supports studies on the genomic features, virulence determinants, and phylogenetic relationships of clinical Mucor circinelloides isolates associated with trauma-related mucormycosis.
