Carbapenemase genes distribution in clonal lineages of Acinetobacter baumannii: a comprehensive study on plasmids and chromosomes

BackgroundThe global spread of plasmids carrying carbapenemase genes within carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) strains poses a worldwide public health issue. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive genetic analysis of plasmids and chromosomes harboring the major carbapenemase ge...
