Occurrence of high-risk clones of Klebsiella pneumoniae ST11, ST340 and ST855 carrying the blaKPC-2, blaNDM-1, blaNDM-5 and blaNDM-7 genes from colonized and infected patients in Brazil

Aims: Determine which ST clones were carrying the blaKPC, blaNDM, blaVIM, blaIMP and blaGES genes and their variants in clinical isolates of multidrug resistant K. pneumoniae. Methods and results: Ten K. pneumoniae isolates were obtained from the colonized and infected patients in a public hospital in the city of Recife-PE,…

Annotate plasmids with custom database + visualization

Annotate plasmids with custom database + visualization 1 Hi everyone, I have assembled 3 plasmids containing blaNDM-7 carbapenemase using Flye with –plasmids flag and Oxford Nanopore reads. Prokka annotation did not work well for the plasmids, so I decided to Blast one of the sequences. I have retrieved some genes…
