Genomic and Functional Characterization of CTX-M-15-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST307 Isolated from Imported Leopard Tortoises in Germany

Applied Microbiology
The Klebsiella pneumoniae ST307 clone, identified in the mid-1990s, has emerged as a global antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) high-risk clone, significantly contributing to the global health challenge also posed by other AMR K. pneumoniae lineages.

IMP-38-Producing High-Risk Sequence Type 307 Klebsiella pneumoniae Strains from a Neonatal Unit in China

mSphere, 2020
An emerging multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae high-risk clone of sequence type 307 (ST307) has been increasingly reported worldwide. Here, we described the genomic characteristics of an IMP-38-producing ST307 K. pneumoniae strain and investigated

Two Distinct Genotypes of KPC-2-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates from South Korea

Antibiotics, 2021
In this study, we investigated the characteristics of KPC-2-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP-Kp) isolates from a hospital in South Korea. Among the 37 KP-Kp isolates, two main clones were identified—ST11 and ST307.

KPC-39-Mediated Resistance to Ceftazidime-Avibactam in a Klebsiella pneumoniae ST307 Clinical Isolate

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2021
Resistance to the ceftazidime (CAZ)-avibactam (AVI) combination is increasingly being reported. Here, we report a CAZ-AVI-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain belonging to the high-risk sequence type 307 (ST307) clone and producing Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase 39 (KPC-39), a single ...

An update of the evolving epidemic of blaKPC carrying Klebsiella pneumoniae in Sicily, Italy, 2014: Emergence of multiple Non-ST258 Clones [PDF]

, 2015
Background: In Italy, Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase producing K. pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) strains are highly endemic and KPC producing CC258 is reported as the widely predominating clone.

Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains in Switzerland: human and non-human settings may share high-risk clones

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2022
: Background: The spread of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (CP-Kp) strains belonging to high-risk sequence types (STs) is a concern. For Switzerland, national data about the molecular features (especially the STs) of CP-Kp of human origin

Diversity, virulence, and antimicrobial resistance of the KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST307 clone

Microbial Genomics, 2017
The global spread of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) has been mainly associated with the dissemination of high-risk clones. In the last decade, hospital outbreaks involving KPC-producing K. pneumoniae have been predominantly attributed to isolates belonging to clonal group (CG) 258.

Antimicrobial Resistance Caused by KPC-2 Encoded by Promiscuous Plasmids of the Klebsiella pneumoniae ST307 Strain

Annals of Laboratory Medicine, 2021
A lineage of Klebsiella pneumoniae that produces carbapenemase-2 (KPC-2), sequence type (ST) 307, emerged in 2017. We analyzed the complete sequences of plasmids from KPC-2-producing K. pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) ST307, investigated the antimicrobial resistance conferred by this strain, and confirmed the horizontal interspecies transmission of KPC ...
