Draft genome sequencing of Klebsiella pneumoniae sequence type 512, a multidrug resistant strain isolated in Italy. Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae ST512-K30BO

Here we present the draft genome sequence of a Klebsiella pneumoniae of sequence type 512 isolated during a recent KPC-producers outbreak in Italy. This strain is resistant to most antibiotics including B-lactams, cephalosporines, fluoroquinolones, aminoglycosides, macrolides, tetracyclines and carbapenems, while still susceptible to colistin. The ST512-K30BO strain genome is composed of 149 scaffolds for 5,363,747 bp with a G+C content of 56.8%.
