Genome Sequences of 11 Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Strains
نویسندگان
چکیده
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains are a common cause of both sporadic infection and outbreaks of enteric disease in humans. Here, we present draft genome sequences of 11 STEC strains of different serotypes (O145, O121, O26, O177, and O-type unknown), that have been isolated from patients with enteric disease of various degrees of severity, in the years 2001 to 2014 at St. Olavs Hospital in Trondheim, Norway.

Complete Annotated Genome Sequences of Two Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Strains and One Atypical Enteropathogenic E. coli Strain, Isolated from Naturally Colonized Cattle of German Origin
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains are important zoonotic enteric pathogens with the main reservoir in cattle. Here, we present the genomes of two STEC strains and one atypical enteropathogenic E. coli strain from cattle origin, obtained during a longitudinal study in German cattle herds.

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) bacteria are foodborne pathogens that can be carried by various animals. The swine STEC population is partially composed of host-specific strains that are often not well characterized. In this work, the genome sequences of a number of swine STEC strains are presented.

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains are human pathogens. Although >400 non-O157 serotypes have been involved in human disease, whole-genome sequencing information is missing for many serotypes. We sequenced 64 STEC strains comprising 38 serotypes, isolated from clinical sources, animals, and environmental samples, to improve the phylogenetic understanding of these important fo...
