Stratum Nutrition, St. Charles, MO, has announced the recent publication of the complete genome of BLIS K12 (Streptococcus salivarius K12). The study titled “Genome Sequence of the Lantibiotic Bacteriocin Producer Streptococcus Salivarius Strain K12” was published in the Journal of Bacteriology (2012), 194(21):5959. DOI: 10.1128/JB.01268-12. The sequence data file was deposited in DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank under master record accession number ALIF00000000. Complete genomic sequencing of BLIS K12 was completed through a collaboration with Swiss company Nestlé. Having knowledge of the complete S. salivarius K12 genome significantly contributes to the understanding of the role of this species in the microbial ecology of the mouth and throat and its beneficial role on human health. Dr. Barry Richardson, CEO of BLIS Technologies stated, “the completion of the BLIS K12 genome sequence is a significant milestone in the commercial development of the BLIS K12 probiotic and once again confirms the excellent safety of the organism.”
