Draft Genome Sequences of Novel Sequence Type 3559 Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates Recovered from the Environment

Here, we report a novel sequence type, 3559, from four genomes of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from South African hospital wastewater, influent wastewater, river water, and riverbed sediment. The genome annotation indicated a wide variety of resistance genes, including bla(KPC-2), and virulence fa...

Sumario:Here, we report a novel sequence type, 3559, from four genomes of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from South African hospital wastewater, influent wastewater, river water, and riverbed sediment. The genome annotation indicated a wide variety of resistance genes, including bla(KPC-2), and virulence factors revealing their possible pathogenicity.
