Complete Genome Sequence of the Neonatal Meningitis Escherichia coli Serotype O18:K1 Strain NMEC15.

ABSTRACT: Neonatal meningitis Escherichia coli (NMEC) is the second leading cause of sepsis and meningitis in neonates worldwide. Here, we report the genome sequence of NMEC15, belonging to serotype O18:K1, isolated from the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of an infant with neonatal bacterial meningitis (NBM) in the Netherlands.
