Genetic determinants facilitating the evolution of resistance to carbapenem antibiotics
2021-02-12
Abstract excerpt
In this era of rising antibiotic resistance, in contrast to our increasing understanding of mechanisms that cause resistance, our understanding of mechanisms that influence the propensity to evolve resistance remains limited. Here, we identified genetic factors that facilitate the evolution of resistance to carbapenems, the antibiotic of “last resort,” in Klebsiella pneumoniae , the major carbapenem resistant spe...
