Evolution of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing ST131 <i>Escherichia coli</i> at a single hospital over 15 years
2023-12-12
Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli belonging to sequence type ST131 constitute a globally distributed pandemic lineage that causes multidrug-resistant extra-intestinal infections. ST131 E. coli frequently produce extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), which confer resistance to many β-lactam antibiotics and make infections difficult to treat. We sequenced the genomes of 154 ESBL-producing E. coli clinical isolates belonging to t...
