Key Points

This research aims to sequence the genome of a multidrug-resistant E. coli strain from wastewater, identifying its antibiotic resistance traits.
Isolated Escherichia coli strain ASK-30 from wastewater.
Conducted draft genome sequencing.
Analyzed the presence of antibiotic resistance genes.
Identified multiple antibiotic resistance genes, including bla CTX-M-15 and bla TEM-1.
Confirmed the strain's multidrug-resistant characteristics.

Implication

Genome sequencing reveals antibiotic resistance genes in multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli from wastewater, indicating environmental health risks.

Abstract

We report the draft genome sequence of the multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli strain ASK-30 isolated from wastewater in a northern state in India. Its genome harbors bla CTX-M-15 , bla TEM-1 , and other antibiotic resistance genes.
