Draft genome sequence of an XDR Klebsiella pneumoniae strain NGCE-700 isolated from human blood sample in Dhaka, Bangladesh

Key Points

• The aim is to sequence the genome of an extensively drug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain from a patient.
• Sequenced the draft genome of strain NGCE-700 isolated from a blood sample in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
• Analyzed genome structure, including size and contig quality (N50).
• Examined the presence of resistant genes and plasmids associated with XDR phenotype.
• The genome is 5.53 Mb in size with nine contigs.
• GC content is 57.3%, indicating compositional characteristics.
• Identified multiple drug-resistant genes and plasmids linked to the XDR phenotype.
