Complete genome sequence of Parvimonas parva isolated from a human patient in Japan

Parvimonas parva is a gram-positive, strictly anaerobic bacterium belonging to the Peptoniphilaceae family and represents a second species within the genus Parvimonas. In this study, we present a complete genome sequence of Parvimonas parva isolated from human clinical specimen in Japan. The strain was deposited in 2015 as a human clinical isolate. Nevertheless, it was preserved as an unidentified strain for an extended period. This strain was initially identified using a MALDI-Biotyper, following the manufacturer's instructions (Bruker Japan). The identity of the strain was confirmed by determining the sequence of the 16S rRNA gene. The whole genome sequence of this strain was determined. The sequencing was performed through a combination of long-read sequencing by nanopore (Oxford Nanopore Technologies, Tokyo, Japan) and short-read sequencing by DNBSEQ (MGITech Co., Ltd., Shenzhen, China).
