The study aims at sequencing a multi-drug resistant, New Delhi Metallo-ß-Lactamase-1 (NDM-1) producing Escherichia coli isolated in Singapore.
We report the draft genome sequence of an NDM-1 positive Escherichia coli isolated from a surgical patient. The assembled data indicated the presence of 3 multi-drug resistance plasmids, in which 1 of them shared 100% identity with an NDM-1 plasmid isolated from a nearby hospital previously, suggesting possible local transmission.
