Complete Genome Sequence of a Colistin-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolate from Houseflies (Musca domestica) in a Trash Disposal Truck in the United States

A Klebsiella pneumoniae strain isolated from houseflies in a trash disposal truck in the United States was resistant to colistin, a last-resort drug for treating infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Complete genome sequencing resulted in a total genome size of 5,337,408 b...

Sumario:A Klebsiella pneumoniae strain isolated from houseflies in a trash disposal truck in the United States was resistant to colistin, a last-resort drug for treating infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Complete genome sequencing resulted in a total genome size of 5,337,408 bp for this isolate with a plasmid of 224,442 bp.
