Published: April 2021

is a genus of acetic acid bacteria (AAB) whose members have been shown to function as insect symbionts. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of , isolated from field-collected using a hybrid assembly approach. The data provide essential insights into the metabolic functions of the symbiont to the host.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers utilized advanced genomic techniques to identify 44 different strains, notably finding that ST133 was the most prevalent, while many isolates also contained resistance genes against multiple antibiotic classes, including significant resistance to carbapenems.
  • * The results highlight a diverse and complex landscape of K. pneumoniae in the region, emphasizing the urgent need for continuous genomic surveillance to tackle the challenge of rising antimicrobial resistance.

Objectives: The study aim was to investigate multidrug-resistant (MDR) plasmids from a collection of 10 carbapenemase-producing clinical isolates identified within the same healthcare institution in Pakistan. Full characterization of the MDR plasmids including structure, typing characteristics, and AMR content as well as determination of their plasmid-based antimicrobial susceptibility profiles were carried out.

Methods: Plasmids were isolated from 10 clinical isolates of , and from a corresponding set of transconjugants, then sequenced using Nanopore/Illumina technology to generate plasmid hybrid assemblies.
