IS26-mediated cointegration generates a plasmid co-harbouring blaIMP-4 and blaKPC-2 in Klebsiella pneumoniae

Background: This study aims to explore the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of a plasmid that co-harbours blaIMP-4 and blaKPC-2 in a carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. Methods: Strain K194 was isolated from a 60-year-old patient. Species identification was performed with matrix-assi...
