Proteus

Proteus is a genus of gram negative Proteobacteria. Species include Proteus mirabilis which is a cause of Urinary Tract infections in humans, often resulting in the production of urinary stones.

Species of Proteus are being sequenced as part of the Public Health England NCTC reference collection. Please see the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute's NCTC page for more details.
