Gene database of Fusobacterium nucleatum NCTC10562

Fusobacterium nucleatum is an oral bacterium that partakes
in periodontal disease. This arises from its ability to coaggregate with other
bacterial species in the oral cavity in periodontal plaque. Many aspects of the
pathogenicity of F. nucleatum remains to be elucidated. This work sought
to provide basic information of this bacterium with annotated genome sequence
downloaded from Genbank. Comprising gene name, gene function, and gene sequence
of all genes in the genome of the bacterium, the database should find use in
molecular cloning workflow for in vitro reconstitution of particular
pathogenic pathway or generation of loss of function mutants useful for
understanding function of genes in pathogenesis of the oral cavity.
