626. Mobile Genetic Element Dynamics of Co-Circulating Klebsiella pneumoniae Sequence Types Carrying blaKPC in Houston, Texas

BACKGROUND: Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-Kpn) are a significant cause of hospital-associated infections. Class A β-lactamases, e.g., Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases (KPCs), are major contributors to carbapenem resistance. Sequence type 258 (ST258) is the most common genetic li...
