# Draft genome analysis of a serum-resistant and fourth-generation cephalosporin (cefepime)-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strain TDU5 isolated from Dhaka, Bangladesh

## TL;DR

This paper presents the draft genome of a drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strain from Bangladesh, highlighting its resistance to cefepime and serum.

## Contribution

The study provides a detailed genomic analysis of a serum- and cefepime-resistant A. baumannii strain from Bangladesh.

## Key findings

- The genome size was 3,586,480 bp with 3,429 coding sequences.
- The strain harbored multiple antimicrobial resistance genes including blaPER-7, blaADC-52, and blaOXA-91.
- The isolate was found to be serum-resistant and pathogenic.

## Abstract

We report the draft genome of a cefepime-resistant A. baumannii TDU5, isolated from Turag river water in Bangladesh. The strain was serum-resistant and pathogenic. The genome size was 3,586,480 bp with 3,429 coding sequences (CDS). The isolate harbored multiple antimicrobial resistance genes including blaPER-7, blaADC-52, and blaOXA-91.
