Draft Genome Sequences of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Encoding Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases

Abstract

Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) have rarely been observed among Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC), and, to our best knowledge, only three ESBL-positive isolates of the enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) subpathotype have been reported. Here, we present the first draft genome sequences of two ESBL-positive EHEC isolates belonging to serotypes O111:H8 and O151:H16.
