Draft genome sequence of Lactobacillus kefiri SGL 13, a potential probiotic strain isolated from kefir grains.
In this report, we present the draft genome sequence of a newly discovered potential probiotic strain of Lactobacillus kefiri, SGL 13, isolated from kefir grains. Antibiotic resistance analysis did not reveal evidence of interspecific horizontal gene transfer since the identified bacitracin resistance gene does not have mobile genetic elements.
