Bacterial Data

This Archived page provides historical information on the genome sequences of bacteria that were sequenced at the Wellcome Sanger Institute and is no longer being updated.

We have sequenced a large number of bacterial genomes at the Sanger Institute and have made all our sequence data freely available on relevant open-access international databases. If you would like to know more about history of the projects and the people who were involved, please click on the links below.

Data use

This sequencing centre plans on publishing the completed and annotated sequences in a peer-reviewed journal as soon as possible. Permission of the principal investigator should be obtained before publishing analyses of the sequence/open reading frames/genes on a chromosome or genome scale. See our data sharing policy.
