TL;DR
This paper reports the full genome sequence of a bacteria strain from a patient, which carries a new gene variant linked to antibiotic resistance.
Contribution
The study identifies and characterizes a novel variant of the carbapenemase gene, blaIMI-24, in a clinical isolate.
Findings
The complete genome of Enterobacter asburiae strain CRE21025 was sequenced.
A novel variant of the imipenemase-type gene, blaIMI-24, was identified in the isolate.
Abstract
Enterobacter asburiae strain CRE21025 was isolated from a gallbladder abscess of a patient admitted to the hospital in Shimane Prefecture in 2021. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of this isolate, bearing a novel variant of the imipenemase-type gene, blaIMI-24, by whole-genome sequencing using Oxford Nanopore and Illumina methods.
Genes, proteins, chemicals, diseases, species, mutations and cell lines named across the full text — each resolved to its canonical identifier and authoritative record.
