Abstract

Clostridioides difficile is a Gram-positive, obligate anaerobic, toxin-producing bacillus that is linked to antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Here, we report the whole-genome sequence of a C. difficile strain isolated from stool from a patient, using next-generation sequencing (MGISEG-2000). De novo assembly revealed a genome length of 4,208,266 bp. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) results showed that the isolate belonged to sequence type 23 (ST23).
