Genome sequence of Lactobacillus pentosus KCA1: vaginal isolate from a healthy premenopausal woman.

Genome sequence of Lactobacillus pentosus KCA1: vaginal isolate from a healthy premenopausal woman.

The vaginal microbiota, in particular Lactobacillus species, play an important role in female health through modulation of immunity, countering pathogens and maintaining a pH below 4.7.
