Complete sequencing of plasmids containing blaOXA-163 and blaOXA-48 in Escherichia coli sequence type 131.
OXA-48-like enzymes have emerged as important extended-spectrum β-lactamases/carbapenemases in Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (ST131). We report the structures of the first fully sequenced blaOXA-163 plasmid and of two other blaOXA-48 plasmids in this lineage. blaOXA-163 was located on a 71-kb I...
