%X Sequence type 38 is considered a uropathogenic Escherichia coli/enteroaggregative E. coli hybrid associated with multidrug resistance and urinary tract infections. The draft genome sequence of UEC59 from a woman in Pakistan revealed a 5 324 938 bp genome with 5386 coding sequences (CDS), 86 transfer RNA genes and multiple antibiotic resistance genes (blaTEM-1, CMY-2, sul1, sul2, dfrA17, tetA, mphA) and mobile elements (int1, two transposons, 30 insertion sequence elements, one integrative conjugative element, four plasmids, five prophages), along with many virulence genes
