Draft genome sequence of a NDM-5, CTX-M-15, and OXA-1 co-producing Escherichia coli ST167 clinical strain isolated from urine sample

ConclusionsTo our knowledge, this is the first report of an E. coli ST167 strain co-producing NDM-5, CTX-M-15, and OXA-1 isolated from urine sample in China. It may help us to understand the genomic feature, molecular characteristic and resistance gene diversity of this bacterial pathogen, and the genome sequence of E. coli ECWJ1 can be used as a reference sequence for comparative analysis of NDM-5 producing E. coli aimed to reveal the mechanism of NDM-5 dissemination in this pathogen.
