Complete genome sequences of Escherichia coli KA0011 clinical isolate used as a quality control strain of carbapenem susceptibility testing in Japan.

Escherichia coli KA0011 had stable minimum inhibitory concentration values around the breakpoint range of meropenem and imipenem, making it suitable for use as a quality control strain for antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Here, we report the complete genomic sequence of KA0011.
