Whole-Genome Sequence of Acinetobacter baumannii Strain NUBRI-A, Isolated from a Hospitalized Patient in Khartoum, Sudan

Abstract

Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as an important pathogen leading to multiple nosocomial outbreaks. Here, we describe the genomic sequence of a multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii sequence type 164 (ST164) isolate from a hospital patient in Sudan. To our knowledge, this is the first reported draft genome of an A. baumannii strain isolated from Sudan.
