Draft genome sequence of a carbapenemase-producing (NDM-1) and multidrug-resistant, hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae ST11 isolate from Pakistan, with a non-hypermucoviscous phenotype associated with rmpA2 mutation

Draft genome sequence of a carbapenemase-producing (NDM-1) and multidrug-resistant, hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae ST11 isolate from Pakistan, with a non-hypermucoviscous phenotype associated with rmpA2 mutation

ABSTRACT: Objectives: ST11 is a high-risk sequence type associated with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains. Carbapenemase-producing hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (hvKp) are a major concern as they harbour a diverse range of pathogenicity traits. Here we describe the characteristics of...
