Abstract

Klebsiella oxytoca is a ubiquitous bacterium that is increasingly associated with inflammatory diseases. Here, we report the hybrid assembled genome for cytotoxic K. oxytoca strain AHC-6. The genome comprises a total of 5.7 Mbp, with a GC content of 55.2% and 5,258 coding sequences after assembly and annotation.
