Abstract

ABSTRACT We report the draft genome sequence of the extensively drug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain NGCE-700 isolated from a bacteremia patient in Bangladesh. The 5.53 Mb genome comprises nine contigs with N50 5.49 Mb and guanine or cytosine content of 57.3% and harbors multiple resistant genes and plasmids consistent with its XDR phenotype.
