Insights into mobile genetic elements and the role of conjugative plasmid in transferring aminoglycoside resistance in extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii AB329

Insights into mobile genetic elements and the role of conjugative plasmid in transferring aminoglycoside resistance in extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii AB329

Acinetobacter baumannii is a major cause of nosocomial infection, and the incidence of extensively drug-resistant A. baumannii (XDRAB) infections has dramatically increased worldwide. In this study, we aimed to explore the complete genome sequence of XDRAB 329, ST1166/98 (Oxford/Pasteur), which is a...
