Genomic Characterization of Mobile Genetic Elements Associated With Carbapenem Resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii From India

With the excessive genome plasticity, Acinetobacter baumannii can acquire and disseminate antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes often associated with mobile genetic elements (MGEs). Analyzing the genetic environment of resistance genes often provides valuable information on the origin, emergence, evo...
