Emergence and evolution of antimicrobial resistance genes and mutations in <i>Neisseria gonorrhoeae</i>
2020-10-26
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a global health concern. Strains from two internationally circulating sequence types, ST-7363 and ST-1901, have acquired resistance to treatment with third-generation cephalosporins mainly due to the emergence of mosaic penA alleles. These two STs were first detected in Japan; however, when and how the mosaic penA alleles emerged and spread to other countries...
