Draft genome sequence of Enterobacter chengduensis ECC445, isolated from fresh water in the West Indies.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The Enterobacter cloacae complex is considered an important opportunistic pathogen. It comprises many members that remain difficult to delineate by phenotypic approaches. Despite its importance in human infection, there is a lack of information on associated members in other compartments. Here we report the first de novo assembled and annotated whole-genome sequence of a E. chengduensis strain isolated from the environment.

Data description

ECC445 specimen was isolated in 2018 from a drinking water catchment point in Guadeloupe. It was clearly related to E. chengduensis species according to hsp60 typing and genomic comparison. Its whole-genome sequence is 5,211,280-bp long divided into 68 contigs, and presents a G + C content of 55.78%. This genome and associated
