Complete genome sequence of a tetracycline-resistant Streptococcus mutans strain carrying the tet(M) gene
Description: S. mutans strain HSM45, carrying the tetracycline resistance gene tet(M), was isolated from a haemophilia patient at Hiroshima University Hospital. The complete genome sequence was used to determine the serotype of HSM45, and the nucleotide sequence of tet(M) and its adjacent region was compared with public genome sequences.
