We report the draft genome sequences of two unrelated cases of Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (ST131) possessing the carbapenemase gene blaIMP-4. The E. coli ST131 SN5 isolate also possessed blaSHV-12 and plasmid-mediated quinolone-resistance genes. Wider dissemination of blaIMP-4 may occur due to the blaIMP-4-carrying L/M or HI2 plasmids among E. coli ST131 isolates.
我们报告了两例携带碳青霉烯酶基因blaIMP-4的非相关大肠杆菌序列类型131(ST131)病例的基因组序列草图。大肠杆菌ST131 SN5分离株还拥有blaSHV-12和质粒介导的喹诺酮抗性基因。由于携带blaIMP-4的L/M或HI2质粒在大肠杆菌ST131分离株中存在,blaIMP-4可能会更广泛地传播。
