Abstract

We report the draft genome of Mycolicibacterium conceptionense, a rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacterium, isolated from the sputum sample of a patient undergoing treatment for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis in Delhi, India. The 6,366,717-bp genome contains 6,124 coding sequences, one 5S rRNA, three 16S rRNAs, six 23S rRNAs, and 49 tRNAs.

Keywords: Mycolicibacterium conceptionense; nontuberculous mycobacterium; whole-genome sequencing.
