Colistin Resistance Gene mcr-8 in a High-Risk Sequence Type 15 Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolate from Kenya

The emergence and rise of mobile colistin resistance genes are of great global concern due to the ease of transfer of resistance to other bacteria. This report describes the genome of a colistin- and multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate bearing mcr-8, obtained from a hospitalized patien...
