Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To characterize plasmid pNDM-MAR recovered from a Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate of sequence type (ST) 15 from Morocco, carrying the genes encoding the metallo-β-lactamase NDM-1, the extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) CTX-M-15 and the qnrB1 quinolone resistance determinant. METHODS: The plasmid DNA sequence was obtained by using the 454-Genome Sequencer FLX procedure on a library constructed from...
