title: Draft Genome Sequence of a Multidrug-Resistant New Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamase-1 (NDM-1)-Producing Escherichia coli Isolate Obtained in Singapore.
abstract: We report the draft genome sequence of a New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1)-positive Escherichia coli isolate obtained from a surgical patient. The assembled data indicate the presence of 3 multidrug resistance plasmids, 1 of which shares 100% identity with an NDM-1 plasmid isolated previously from a nearby hospital, suggesting possible local transmission.
