General Information: Corynebacterium urealyticum DSM 7109 (ATCC 43042, NCTC 12011) was isolated from a case of cystitis. Corynebacterium urealyticum is a member of normal human skin and mucosal flora. This organism, however, can colonize the urinary tract causing infections.
Subject: NC_007164:2068678 Corynebacterium jeikeium K411, complete genome
Lineage: Corynebacterium jeikeium; Corynebacterium; Corynebacteriaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from the axilla of a bone marrow transplant patient. A serious nocosomial pathogen. This bacterium is a lipophilic and multidrug resistant member of the human skin flora. This species has been associated with bacterial endocarditis following cardiac surgery. Other nocosomial infections involving this organism are associated with immunocompromised patients with malignancies, in-place medical devices, breaks in the skin barrier, and therapy with broad-spectrum antibiotics.
