Plasmid transferability of KPC into a virulent K2 serotype Klebsiella pneumoniae

BACKGROUND: KPC-producing carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) infections are associated with high mortality; however, their virulence determinants are not well defined. METHODS: We investigated the virulence and plasmid transferability among KPC-containing K. pneumoniae isolates. RESUL...
