Emergence of a novel hybrid mcr-1-bearing plasmid in an NDM-7-producing ST167 Escherichia coli strain of clinical origin

Colistin is considered as an antibiotic of ‘last resort’ for the treatment of lethal infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE), dissemination of plasmid-borne colistin resistance gene mcr-1, particularly into CRE, resulting in the emergence of strains that approach pan-resista...
