Draft Genome and Phenotypic Characterization of an Adherent, Biofilm-Forming Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Strain (HU5) Isolated from Urinary Tract Infection in Mexico

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the main cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs), and its clinical success depends on adherence and colonization of the urothelium. Most publicly deposited UPEC genomes lack accompanying phenotypic validation of adherence or biofilm capac...
