The IncP-6 plasmid p10265-KPC from Pseudomonas aeruginosa carries a novel ΔISEc33-associated blaKPC-2 gene cluster

Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain 10265 was recovered from a patient with pneumonia in a Chinese public hospital, and it displays the carbapenem resistance phenotype due to the acquisition of a nonconjugative but mobilizable IncP-6-type plasmid p10265-KPC. p10265-KPC carries a Tn5563-borne defective mer...
