Comprehensive genome data analysis establishes a triple whammy of carbapenemases, ICEs and multiple clinically-relevant bacteria
2019-06-21
Abstract excerpt
Carbapenemases inactivate most β-lactam antibiotics, including carbapenems and have been frequently reported among Enterobacteriaceae , Acinetobacter spp. and Pseudomonas spp. Traditionally, the horizontal gene transfer of carbapenemase encoding genes (CEGs) has been linked to plasmids. However, given that integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) are possibly the most abundant conjugative elements among prok...
