RESUMO
Klebsiella oxytoca is a facultative aerobic, gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium capable of causing nosocomial infections, in particular catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs). Data on the possible roles of uncommon pathogens such as K. oxytoca in the pathogenesis of biofilm-associated infections such as CAUTIs have been already reported. Herein, we describe the draft genome sequence of K. oxytoca strain NK-1 isolated from the surface of ureteral stent retrieved from a Russian female. The genome comprises 6,232,464 bp, with a G + C content of 55.60% and an L 50 of 7. A total of 6246 putative protein-encoding genes were predicted, including considerable number of genes responsible for adhesion, invasion, drug resistance, iron acquisition and other genes relevant for virulence. The NK-1 strain was ascribed a sequence type (ST) as ST 216 (4, 6, 19, 10, 46, 24, 31). Data comparison of the recA gene sequences confirmed that the strain belongs to the species K. oxytoca. Minimal inhibitory concentration of different antibiotics have been determined. This whole genome shotgun project has been deposited at DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under the accession number QPKC00000000.1.
