New Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamase 5–Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Sequence Type 258, Southwest China, 2017

We isolated a New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase 5 (NDM-5)–producing Klebsiella pneumoniae sequence type (ST) 258 strain in southwest China during 2017. The blaNDM-5 gene was acquired by horizontal plasmid transfer from NDM-5–producing Escherichia coli. We identified genomic characteristics in ST258 stra...
