Draft genome sequence of Corynebacterium variabile Mu292, isolated from Munster, a French smear-ripened cheese

Abstract

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Corynebacterium variabile Mu292, which was originally isolated from the surface of Munster, a French smear-ripened cheese. This genome investigation will improve our knowledge on the molecular determinants potentially involved in the adaptation of this strain during the Munster-type cheese manufacturing process.
