Draft Genome Sequence of Escherichia albertii Strain Mex-12/320a, Isolated from an Infant with Diarrhea and Harboring Virulence Genes Associated with Diarrheagenic Strains of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli
2019
ABSTRACT Escherichia albertii is an emerging human enteropathogen. We report the draft genome sequence of E. albertii strain Mex-12/320a, isolated from an infant with diarrhea. The presence of the pathogenic island O122/IE6 and the nleA gene, previously found in diarrheagenic enteropathogenic Escherichia coli strains, suggests that E. albertii may cause acute diarrhea.
