Lacticaseibacillus paracasei genome
Lacticaseibacillus paracasei isolated from kefir grains using MRS medium and subsequently identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Whole-genome sequencing using the Illumina platform generated high-quality data, assembling into a 2.99 Mb genome containing 3,063 protein-coding genes and 101 ncRNAs. The GC content of the strain was also comparable to that of L. paracasei, consistent with the 16S rRNA phylogenetic tree analysis.
