Draft Genome Sequence of Carbapenemase-Producing Serratia marcescens Isolated from a Patient with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.

The occurrence of multidrug-resistant Serratia marcescens strains producing metallo-β-lactamases or extended-spectrum β-lactamases represents a serious public health threat. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a multidrug-resistant carbapenemase-producing Serratia marcescens isolate recovered from the bronchoalveolar lavage specimen of a patient suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
