Genomic analysis of the emerging carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae sequence type 11 harbouring Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) in Oman

Background and objective: The presence of carbapenemase enzymes among Enterobacterales is the main mechanism to reduce susceptibility to a wide range of antibiotics. Carbapenemase enzymes such as the Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) hydrolyse beta-lactam antibiotics group, which includes ca...
