Genome sequence reveals three plasmids in Enterobacter hormaechei from a diabetic patient, indicating its emerging pathogenic potential.
Enterobacter hormaechei is an emerging gram-negative bacterium belonging to the Enterobacter cloacae complex. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of the HKEH-1 strain isolated from a blood sample from a type II diabetic patient, harboring three plasmids which share high homology to known plasmids of the Enterobacter species.
