Genetic Configuration of Genomic Resistance Islands in Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates From Egypt
22 Jul 2022
Abstract excerpt
In Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii), a wide repertoire of resistance genes is often carried within genomic resistance islands (RIs), particularly in high-risk global clones (GCs). As the first in Egypt, the current study aimed at exploring the diversity and genetic configuration of RIs in the clinical isolates of A. baumannii. For this purpose, draft genomes of 18 isolates were generated by Illumina...
