Genomic Sequences of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Strains with Various Fluoroquinolone Resistance Profiles.

ABSTRACT The emergence of drug-resistant uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) has hampered antibiotic therapy for urinary tract infections. To elucidate the resistance mechanisms of UPEC, we performed whole-genome sequencing of eight UPEC strains with different fluoroquinolone resistance levels. Here, we report our sequencing data, providing a valuable resource for understanding such mechanisms.
