Acinetobacter baumannii is a major cause of nosocomial infection worldwide. We report the draft genome sequence ofA. baumannii AC12, a multidrug-resistant nosocomial strain with additional resistance to carbapenems and polymyxin. The genome data will provide insights into the genetic basis of antimicrobial resistance and its adaptive mechanism.
