TL;DR
This paper reports the genome and antibiotic resistance profile of a dangerous Klebsiella pneumoniae strain from a neonatal blood culture in Ghana.
Contribution
The study provides the first genomic data of a high-risk ST15 multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain from Ghana.
Findings
The strain Kleb009 is a high-risk ST15 multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.
The draft genome and antibiogram data will support antimicrobial resistance surveillance in the region.
Abstract
We present the draft genome sequence and antibiogram of a high-risk sequence type ST15 multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain (Kleb009) from a neonatal blood culture from Ghana. Despite the public health importance of K. pneumoniae, genomic data on locally circulating strains are limited. This data will enhance antimicrobial resistance surveillance efforts.
