Abstract

Escherichia coli strain INF32/16/A is a gram-negative bacteria which is an extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL). ESBL is an enzyme that is produced by bacteria to become resistant to existing antibiotic such as extended-spectrum penicillin, cephalosporins, and have been threatening the ability to treat an infection. Therefore, genome analysis will provide an insight of how this bacteria able to evolve and the information obtained will able to facilitate in designing new antibiotics. The genome of E. coli strain was sequenced using Illumina MiSeq and raw genome sequence have been submitted into NCBI SRA database (SRR15334628) under Bioproject accession number PRJNA726861.
