Abstract
Acinetobacter baumannii is associated with hospital-acquired infections and can cause persistent outbreaks. Here we report the draft genome sequence of ABBL099, a multidrug-resistant clinical isolate of A. baumannii belonging to a novel sequence type and representative of clonal isolates cultured from patients at one institution over a 4-year time period.
