Abstract

A Klebsiella pneumoniae strain isolated from houseflies in a trash disposal truck in the United States was resistant to colistin, a last-resort drug for treating infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Complete genome sequencing resulted in a total genome size of 5,337,408 bp for this isolate with a plasmid of 224,442 bp.
