Overview
abstract
Three Corynebacterium mastitidis strains were cultured from the eyes of CD36-knockout mice (B6.129S1-Cd36tm1Mfe/J) with and without keratitis housed at a biomedical research institute. Bacteria were sequenced using Illumina MiSeq technology for subsequent phylogenetic characterization and identification of virulence factor genes conferring pathogenic potential.
