Genome Sequence of Escherichia coli Strain LCT-EC52, Which Acquired Changes in Antibiotic Resistance Properties after the Shenzhou-VIII Mission

摘要

Escherichia coli is a ubiquitous opportunistic pathogen that colonizes the lower intestines of humans and causes several diseases, such as septicemia, pneumonia, and urinary tract infections. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of E.?coli strain LCT-EC52, which originated from E.?coli strain CGMCC 1.2385 and acquired changes in antibiotic resistance following travel on the Shenzhou-VIII spacecraft.
