The draft genome sequence of bla _CTX-M-270 -carrying Kluyvera ascorbata isolated from human sputum

Abstract

Kluyvera ascorbata is recognized as an opportunistic pathogen of the Enterobacteriaceae family but remains less studied. We report the draft genome of a K. ascorbata clinical strain recovered from human sputum, comprising approximately 5.18 million bases and harboring an intrinsic gene encoding the extended-spectrum β-lactamase CTX-M-270.
