Complete genome of <i>Nanosynbacter</i> sp. strain BB002, isolated and cultivated from a site of periodontal disease
<i>Nanosynbacter sp.</i> strain BB002, was isolated from the human oral cavity on its basibiont bacterial host <i>Actinomyces</i> sp. oral taxon 171 strain F0337, related to <i>Actinomyces oris</i>. As a member of the <i>Saccharibacteria</i> within the candidate phylum radiation group (CPR), its reduced genome facilitates the survival as an ultrasmall (<0.2 μm) epibiont.
