Abstract excerpt
This study elucidates the in vivo genetic mechanisms contributing to the emerging resistance to carbapenem in Shewanella algae through a lens of adaptive microbial evolution. Leveraging PacBio amplification-free sequencing, we tracked the evolution of β-lactam resistance in clinical isolates from a persistent S. algae bacteremia case amidst antimicrobial therapy. Our investigation spotlighted a recurrent G547W...
