Convergent Chromosomal Integration of a Dual-Carbapenemase Platform Drives the Global ST164 CRAB Pandemic: A Multi-Scale Genomic Epidemiology Study
2026-08-26
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p> <bold>Background</bold> Carbapenem-resistant <italic>Acinetobacter baumannii</italic> (CRAB) is a critical-priority pathogen. While the global clone ST2 (IC2) dominates, the rapid emergence of ST164 (IC11) is concerning, yet its evolutionary strategy and drivers of pandemic spread remain poorly understood. <bold>Methods</bold> We performed a multi-scale genomic epidemiology study...
