Abstract excerpt
The emergence of 16S rRNA methyltransferases (RMTs) in Gram-negative pathogens bearing other clinically relevant resistance mechanisms, such as carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE), is becoming an alarming concern. We investigated the prevalence, antimicrobial susceptibility, resistance mechanisms, molecular epidemiology and genetic support of RMTs in CPE isolates from Spain. This study included a...
