Genomic analysis of an extensively drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa ST312 harbouring IncU plasmid-mediated blaKPC-2 isolated from ascitic fluid
ABSTRACT: Objectives: The Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) is disseminated worldwide mostly by plasmids. However, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa chromosomal mutations are more frequently responsible for resistance to carbapenems than the acquisition of mobile elements harbouring carbapenemases...
