Abstract

The complete genome sequence of a type III strain of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis was determined. The genome size for this pathogen of sheep is 4,895,755 bp with no plasmid DNA. The chromosome contains 19 copies of the hallmark IS900 element, which is routinely used to identify this subspecies.
