Emergence of a Multidrug-Resistant Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae Sequence Type 23 Strain with a Rare blaCTX-M-24-Harboring Virulence Plasmid

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2019
Here, we report a multidrug-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (MDR-HvKP) strain of sequence type 23 (ST23) with a rare hybrid plasmid harboring virulence genes and blaCTX-M-24, and we analyze the genetic basis for relationship between ...

Are Escherichia coli Pathotypes Still Relevant in the Era of Whole-Genome Sequencing?

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016
The empirical and pragmatic nature of diagnostic microbiology has given rise to several different schemes to subtype E. coli, including biotyping, serotyping and pathotyping. These schemes have proved invaluable in identifying and tracking outbreaks, and

Phylogenomic Analysis of Extraintestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli Sequence Type 1193, an Emerging Multidrug-Resistant Clonal Group

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2018
The fluoroquinolone-resistant sequence type 1193 (ST1193) of Escherichia coli, from the ST14 clonal complex (STc14) within phylogenetic group B2, has appeared recently as an important cause of extraintestinal disease in humans.
