Early childhood exposure to a farming environment has been found to be protective against asthma and other atopic disorders. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis G121, which was isolated from the kitchen of a farm in Bavaria (Germany) and is recognized for its allergy-protective properties. It could be assembled into one circular chromosome, three circular plasmids, and one linear plasmid.
