Virulence potential of a multidrug-resistant <i>Escherichia coli</i> strain belonging to the emerging clonal group ST101-B1 isolated from bloodstream infection
2019-10-08
Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli EC121 is a multidrug-resistant (MDR) strain isolated from bloodstream infection of an inpatient with persistent gastroenteritis and Zone T lymphoma, that died due to septic shock. Despite causing an extraintestinal infection, it harbors few known virulence factors and was assigned into phylogenetic group B1. To evaluate if the EC121 was pathogenic or opportunistic, its genome was sequenced, and an...
