# Draft genome sequence of a multidrug-resistant clinical Serratia marcescens DUEML4 (ST444) isolated from a human tracheal aspirate in Bangladesh

## TL;DR

This paper presents the first public genome sequence of a multidrug-resistant Serratia marcescens strain isolated from a patient in Bangladesh.

## Contribution

The paper provides the first publicly available genome sequence of S. marcescens ST444.

## Key findings

- The genome was sequenced from a clinical isolate from a human tracheal aspirate in Bangladesh.
- This is the first reported genome sequence for the ST444 strain of S. marcescens.

## Abstract

Serratia marcescens is a rare opportunistic nosocomial pathogen. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of S. marcescens DUEML4 (ST444), isolated from the tracheal aspirate of a 68-year-old female patient with respiratory tract infection in a hospital in Dhaka. This is the first public genome sequence of ST444.
