Two IncHI1 megaplasmids in Klebsiella species reveal transposable-element-mediated blaIMP-1 mobilisation
Introduction Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) represent a major threat to hospitalised patients worldwide. The dissemination of carbapenemase genes, such as blaIMP, is frequently mediated by mobile genetic elements including plasmids. During a previously described multispecies, healthcare-associated outbr...
