AI Article Synopsis
- A new 160-kb plasmid containing the blaOXA-48 gene was characterized from a Klebsiella pneumoniae strain found in France.
- The plasmid belongs to the IncL/M-type group.
- It was observed that a 60-kb plasmid carrying the OXA-48 gene transferred from Klebsiella pneumoniae to other Enterobacteriaceae in two patients.
Article Abstract
In this work, we characterized a new, 160-kb, blaOXA-48-harboring IncL/M-type plasmid isolated from a Klebsiella pneumoniae strain from France. Moreover, we report the transfer of a 60-kb OXA-48-encoding plasmid from Klebsiella pneumoniae to other Enterobacteriaceae in two patients.
