pQEB1: a hospital outbreak plasmid lineage carrying <i>bla</i> <sub>KPC-2</sub>

2024-06-08

Abstract excerpt

While conducting genomic surveillance of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPEs) from patient colonisation and clinical infections at Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QE), we identified an N-type plasmid lineage, pQEB1, carrying several antibiotic resistance genes including the carbapenemase gene bla KPC-2 . The pQEB1 lineage is concerning due to its conferral of multi-drug resistance, its host ra...
