Draft Genome Sequence Data of Multidrug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Strain ASK-80

In this study, we report the draft genome sequence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain ASK-80, a multidrug-resistant bacterium isolated from municipal wastewater in Baddi, district Solan, Himachal Pradesh, India. The whole genome was sequenced through Illumina MiSeq sequencing (150 bp paired-end). The size of the assembled genome was 6,261,345 bp, and the genome annotation revealed 5834 genes, including 5778 CDSs, 5748 protein-coding genes, 56 RNA genes and 30 pseudo genes. Genomic characterization revealed the occurrence of multiple antibiotic resistance genes (blaOXA-396, blaOXA-486, blaOXA-494, blaPAO, blaPDC-8, aph(3′)-IIb, catB7, fosA and others), virulence genes (algB, chpA, clpV1, exsA, flgA, pilB, pvcA, toxA, tse1, and waaA), insertion sequences, transposable elements and phage sequences. This genome data may serve as a valuable resource for comparative genomics of P. aeruginosa and research on the antibiotic resistance surveillance of wastewater.
