Genomic characterization of ST11-KL25 hypervirulent KPC-2-producing multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from China
27 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
The global prevalence of ST11 hypervirulent carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (hv-CRKP) isolates has been increasingly documented, yet genomic characterization of this clone remains insufficiently explored. Here, we report a clinical ST11-KL25 hv-CRKP strain (KP156) that exhibited resistance to multiple antibiotics and demonstrated hypervirulence in a mouse infection model. Whole-genome sequencing...
