Abstract: IncX-type plasmids have achieved clinical significance for their contribution in the dissemination of genes confering resistance to carbapenems (most blaKPC- and blaNDM-type genes) and polymyxins (mcr-type genes), both antibiotics considered last resort for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative… read more here.

Abstract: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are a critical public health problem worldwide. Globally, IncX3-type plasmids have emerged as the predominant vehicles carrying the metallo-β-lactamase gene blaNDM. Although blaNDM-bearing IncX3 plasmids have been found in various hosts from… read more here.
