Multifactorial Chromosomal Variants Regulate Polymyxin Resistance in Extensively Drug-Resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>

2017-05-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Extensively drug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (XDR-KP) infections cause high mortality and are disseminating globally. Identifying the genetic basis underpinning resistance allows for rapid diagnosis and treatment. XDR isolates sourced from Greece and Brazil, including nineteen polymyxin-resistant and five polymyxin-susceptible strains, underwent whole genome sequencing. Approximately 90% of...
