Molecular Characterization of blaNDM-Carrying IncX3 Plasmids: blaNDM-16b Likely Emerged from a Mutation of blaNDM-5 on IncX3 Plasmid

ABSTRACT Dissemination of blaNDM, which is carried on the IncX3 plasmid, among Enterobacterales has been reported worldwide. In particular, blaNDM-5-carrying IncX3 plasmids can spread among several hosts, facilitating their dissemination. Other variants, such as blaNDM-17-, blaNDM-19-, blaNDM-20-, b...
