Abstract

This study presents the genome sequence of Bacteroides fragilis strain 86-5443-2-2, isolated from a piglet. The genome of this strain forms a single contig spanning 5.4 million base pairs with a 43.5% GC content and 4,480 genes. Notably, this bacterium possesses two copies of a pathogenic island capable of producing enterotoxins.
