Escherichia coli strain:D3 Genome sequencing. Escherichia coli strain:D3

Urinary tract infections are very common with half of women having at least one infection at some point in their lives. Most often the causative pathogen is a strain of Escherichia coli. One such E. coli, strain D3, caused a bladder infection in a male adult, and was resistant to multiple antibiotics. We sequenced and assembled the genome of D3, and present it along with a comparative analysis against other pathogenic and nonpathogenic E. Coli strains.
