Elevated wzc Mutation Frequency Promotes Carbapenem Resistance Evolution in Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae ST23.
AbstractThe worldwide expansion of carbapenemase-producing hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (CP-hvKP) raises serious concerns about potentially untreatable invasive infections. ST23, an archetypal hvKP clone, has been highlighted due to the rising prevalence of carbapenem resistance largely driven by horizontal plasmid tran...
