Role of the mobilome in the global dissemination of the carbapenem resistance gene blaNDM

2021-02-17

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>The mobile resistance gene blaNDM encodes the NDM enzyme capable of hydrolysing carbapenems, a class of antibiotics used to treat some of the most severe bacterial infections. blaNDM is globally distributed across a variety of Gram-negative bacteria and is typically located within a highly recombining transposon-rich genomic region common to multiple plasmids types. As a result of this...
