Sequence type 131 (ST131) is one of the predominant Escherichia coli lineages among extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) that causes a variety of diseases in humans and animals and frequently shows multidrug resistance. Here, we report the first genome sequence of an ST131-ExPEC strain from poultry carrying the plasmid-encoded colistin resistance gene mcr-1.
序列类型131(ST131)是肠外致病性大肠杆菌(ExPEC)中主要的大肠杆菌谱系之一,可在人类和动物中引发多种疾病,且常常表现出多重耐药性。在此,我们报告了首例来自家禽的携带质粒编码的黏菌素耐药基因mcr-1的ST131-ExPEC菌株的基因组序列。
