Complete Genome Sequence of Ehrlichia muris Strain AS145 T , a Model Monocytotropic Ehrlichia Strain

We report here the complete genome sequence of Ehrlichia muris strain AS145 T , which was isolated from a wild mouse in 1983 in Japan. E. muris establishes persistent infections in laboratory mice and is widely used as a surrogate pathogen in a murine model of ehrlichiosis.
