ABSTRACT BK polyomavirus is an important pathogen in kidney transplant patients. We report here two complete genome sequences, those of isolates CAMB-1035 and CAMB-1055, identified in two urine samples tested for urinary tract infection at a hospital in eastern England, United Kingdom. Variation and phylogenetic analyses indicate that both isolates belong to subtype Ib-1.

Lactobacillus crispatus frequently colonizes the vagina and bladder of healthy women. Although its association with vaginal health is relatively well understood, little is known about its role in urinary tract infection (UTI). Here, we report the complete genome sequences of three urinary L. crispatus strains isolated from women with different UTI histories.

ABSTRACT Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the most common cause of urinary tract infection (UTI). This disease disproportionately affects women and frequently develops into recurrent UTI (rUTI) in postmenopausal women. Here, we report the complete genome sequences of seven UPEC isolates obtained from the urine of postmenopausal women with rUTI.

ABSTRACT Recurrent urinary tract infection (rUTI) poses a major health issue, especially among postmenopausal women. We report complete genome sequences of three Klebsiella quasipneumoniae strains isolated from the urine of postmenopausal women with rUTI. K. quasipneumoniae is a recently identified Klebsiella species with clinical and virulence characteristics distinct from those of K. pneumoniae.
