, 2019 Carbapenems are usually regarded as the last treatment option for serious infections caused by Gram-negative and Gram-positive microorganisms. Although they are stable to hydrolysis by most β- lactamases, their usage as the last resort antbiotics was seriously compromised by the appearance of carbapenem-hydrolyzing enzymes called carbapenemases.

Carbapenemases on the move: it’s good to be on ICEs [PDF]
Mobile DNA, 2018 Abstract The evolution and spread of antibiotic resistance is often mediated by mobile geneticelements. Integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) are the most abundant conjugativeelements among prokaryotes. However, the contribution of ICEs to horizontal gene transferof antibiotic resistance has been largely ...

Clinical epidemiology of the global expansion of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases
Lancet. Infectious Diseases (Print), 2013 Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases (KPCs) were originally identified in the USA in 1996. Since then, these versatile β-lactamases have spread internationally among Gram-negative bacteria, especially K pneumoniae, although their precise epidemiology is ...
