Complete genome sequence of a carbapenem-resistant <i>Enterobacter hormaechei</i> strain harboring a novel conjugative IncHI2 plasmid carrying <i>bla</i> <sub>IMP-6</sub> in Tokyo, Japan
We report the complete genome sequence of a carbapenem-resistant <i>Enterobacter hormaechei</i> ST133 strain isolated from a clinical stool sample at a hospital in Tokyo, Japan, in 2022. This isolate harbors a novel conjugative IncHI2-pST1 plasmid carrying <i>bla</i><sub>IMP-6</sub>. Additionally, this plasmid co-carries <i>bla</i><sub>CTX-M-9</sub>, <i>bla</i><sub>SHV-12</sub>, <i>aac(6')-IIc</i>, <i>sul1, aadA2</i>, <i>qnrA1</i>, <i>dfrA16</i>, and <i>mcr-9.2</i>.
