Complete genome sequence of an <i>Escherichia coli</i> ST7366 strain harboring an extended-spectrum β-lactamase gene isolated from sewage water in Pakistan
We announce the complete genome of <i>Escherichia coli</i> strain PEC1003 belonging to ST7366, isolated from sewage water in Pakistan. This strain harbored a plasmid carrying various antibiotic resistance genes, including extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL), <i>bla</i><sub>CTX-M-15</sub>, emphasizing the management and surveillance of ESBL-producing <i>E. coli</i> in the environment of developing countries.
