Genome Announc. 2015 Feb 5;3(1):e01515-14. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.01515-14.

Abstract

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) O146 strain isolated from a 1-year-old child with acute diarrhea in Delhi who recovered completely. The multidrug transporter (mdtABCD) gene, responsible for drug resistance, is present. The strain also contains the astA gene, an additional virulence determinant.
