Abstract
ABSTRACTAn NDM-1 carbapenemase-producingEscherichia coliisolate of sequence type 131 (ST131) that belonged to phylogenetic group B2 was obtained from a patient with a urinary tract infection who returned to the United States after a recent hospitalization while visiting India. NDM-1-producingE. coliST131 had significantly more virulence factors than NDM-1-producingE. coliST101, previously isolated from a patient in Canada. The presence of NDM β-lactamases in a very successful and virulentE. colisequence type is of concern.
