Abstract

This study used whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and PFGE to analysis KPC-2-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains from clinical specimens collected in Brazilian hospitals. The study identifies the emergence of a novel small IncX3 plasmid (pKPB11), 12,757-bp in length, in a high-risk K. pneumoniae ST11/CG258 lineage, a successful clonal group in Brazil, carrying the bla

Abstract

The dissemination of antimicrobial resistance genes and the bacterium that harbor them have increasingly become a public concern, especially in low- and middle-income countries. The present study used whole-genome sequencing to analyze 10 KPC-2-producing

Abstract

Klebsiella pneumoniae is considered an opportunistic pathogen and an important agent of nosocomial and community infections. It presents the ability to capture and harbour several antimicrobial resistance genes and, in this context, the extensive use of carbapenems to treat serious infections has been responsible for the selection of several resistance genes. This study reports the draft genome sequence of a KPC-2-producing K. pneumoniae strain (Kp10) simultaneously harbouring blaClassical microbiological methods were applied to isolate and identify the strain, and PCR and sequencing were used to identify and characterise the genes and the genetic environment. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was performed using a Nextera XT DNA library and a NextSeq platform.WGS analysis revealed the presence of 5915 coding genes, 46 RNA-encoding genes and 255 pseudogenes. Kp10 belonged to sequence type 340 (ST340) of clonal complex 258 (CC258) and carried 20 transferable genes associated with antimicrobial resistance, comprising seven drug classes. Although the simultaneous presence of different blaThese results confirm the capacity of K. pneumoniae to harbour several antimicrobial resistance genes. Thus, this draft genome could help in future epidemiological studies regarding the dissemination of clinically relevant resistance genes.
