Abstract

Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) is a potential factor in ulcerative colitis etiology. We report here the complete genome and plasmid sequences of three Escherichia coli isolates, C 237-04 (p7), C 236-04A (p10A), and C 691-04A (p19A), obtained from fecal samples from ulcerative colitis patients in Copenhagen, Denmark.
