Sumario:In this present article the draft sequence data for Clostridium perfringens FA, which was isolated from the faecal material of a critically endangered African Wild dog, is reported. The bacterium is widely distributed in the environment and in the normal intestinal flora of humans and animals. The genome of strain C. perfringens FA was assembled into 21 contigs with a total length of 3, 044, 349 bp and a GC content of 28.20%. There are 2742 CDS, 70 tRNAs and 5 rRNAs. Five putative virulence genes were detected. There were no plasmid replicons found. The genome of few environmental isolates has been sequenced. The draft genome of strain FA can be compared to disease causing isolates cultured from humans to aid in a better understanding of the pathogenesis of the bacterium.
