# Draft whole-genome sequence of Enterococcus faecium isolate from a clinical sample from Dhaka, Bangladesh

## TL;DR

This paper presents the whole-genome sequence of an Enterococcus faecium isolate from a clinical sample in Bangladesh.

## Contribution

The study provides a new genome sequence of a clinically relevant Enterococcus faecium isolate.

## Key findings

- The genome is 3,111,621 nucleotides long with a GC% of 37.6%.
- The isolate was identified as a human pathogen with 92.3% probability.
- The genome sequence is publicly available on NCBI.

## Abstract

We collected a urine specimen from a 20-year-old male, cultured it on Chrom-agar Enterococcus, identified it with VITEK2, and whole-genome sequenced it using the PacBio RSII. The genome was 3,111,621 nucleotides long with a GC% of 37.6%. It was identified as a human pathogen with a 92.3% probability and is available on NCBI with an accession ID of JBFBPS000000000.1.
