AI Article Synopsis
- Klebsiella pneumoniae that carry the bla gene are common in hospital environments, posing a significant threat to health care settings.
- The most important strains are part of clonal complex 28 (CC258), particularly sequence type 340 (ST340).
- This study introduces the draft genome sequence of a CTX-M-15-producing ST340 K. pneumoniae strain that was isolated from a food-producing animal in Brazil.
Article Abstract
Klebsiella pneumoniae carrying bla have been widely disseminated in hospital settings. In this regard, most clinically important strains belong to clonal complex 28 (CC258), which includes sequence type 340 (ST340). In this study, we present the draft genome sequence of a CTX-M-15-producing ST340 K. pneumoniae strain isolated from a food-producing animal in Brazil.
