Abstract
We present the complete genome sequence of an enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O111:H8 strain. This strain was isolated from a hemolytic-uremic syndrome patient and was responsible for a large outbreak associated with the consumption of raw beef in 2011.
Highlights
We present the complete genome sequence of an enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O111:H8 strain
Annotation was performed in Prokka version 1.11 [8], InterPro version 49.0 [9], and NCBI BLASTP/BLASTX
The strain carried a novel Stx2 prophage but did not carry a Stx1 prophage. These data would be helpful for the characterization of stx2-positive Escherichia coli (EHEC) O111 and improve the resolution of the surveillance using whole-genome sequencing [10, 11]
