Enterococcus faecalis is a common commensal of the intestines of humans and other mammals but is also a frequent cause of serious ailments. Here, we report 14 draft genome sequences of strains of Enterococcus faecalis , a normal inhabitant and Gram-positive bacterium that was isolated from 7 healthy Japanese volunteers.
