Escherichia coli strain H45 Genome sequencing and assembly

Escherichia coli is a common cause of intestinal infections, urinary tract infections (UTIs), and bacteremia in humans. The emergence of multidrug resistant E. coli is of great concern due to complications encountered in the treatment. In this study we report the draft genomic sequence of Escherichia coli strain H45 obtained from an outpatient urine sample.
