Abstract
Objective: To investigate initially the application of the AMROMICS bioinformatics tool in the automatic analysis of bacterial genomes. Subject and method: Whole-genome analysis of 14 E. coli isolates and the standard E. coli K-12 MG1655 strain published on NCBI database using the AMROMICS bioinformatics tool. Result: AMROMICS automatically analyzed the entire genome of 15 bacterial samples in a short time, and simultaneously showed genome structure, sequence type, virulence gene, and resistance gene with a simple and easy-to-use interface. Most strains could be multi-drug resistant bacteria and harbor genes associated with resistance to commonly used antibiotics such as cephalosporin, quinolone and aminoglycoside. Conclusion: The AMROMICS tool has the potential for clinical application, with the ability to quickly determine drug-resistant genes and virulence genes, AMROMICS can be applied in developing effective treatments regimens and infection control measures.
