Emergence of blaKPC-2-carrying megaplasmid in carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa ST1076: Genomic and functional insights

Objective: Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) poses a critical challenge to clinical treatment due to its multidrug resistance and genomic plasticity. Here, we report the genomic and functional characterization of an ST1076 P. aeruginosa isolate carrying blaKPC-2 on a transferable pl...
