AB  - Candida auris is an emerging pathogen with considerable public health importance. We present the draft genome sequence of a strain recently cultured from the urine of a patient hospitalized in the greater Houston metropolitan region. Two combined Oxford Nanopore sequencing runs provided sufficient data to rapidly generate a draft genome with 9 contigs covering the expected 7 chromosomes.
