Abstract

The draft genome sequence has been determined for an extended-spectrum-β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing (bla_CTX-M-15) Escherichia coli strain (CCUG 62462), composed of 119 contigs and a total size of 5.27 Mb. This E. coli is serotype O25b and sequence type 131, a pandemic clonal group, causing worldwide antimicrobial-resistant infections.
