Characterization of KPC-82, a KPC-2 Variant Conferring Resistance to Ceftazidime-Avibactam in a Carbapenem-Nonsusceptible Clinical Isolate of Citrobacter koseri

KPC-82 is a KPC-2 variant identified in a carbapenem-nonsusceptible Citrobacter koseri that confers high-level resistance to ceftazidime-avibactam. Genomic analysis revealed that bla(KPC-82) is carried by a chromosomally integrated Tn4401 transposon (disrupting porin gene phoE) and evolved by a 6-nu...

Sumario:KPC-82 is a KPC-2 variant identified in a carbapenem-nonsusceptible Citrobacter koseri that confers high-level resistance to ceftazidime-avibactam. Genomic analysis revealed that bla(KPC-82) is carried by a chromosomally integrated Tn4401 transposon (disrupting porin gene phoE) and evolved by a 6-nucleotide tandem repeat duplication causing a two-amino-acid insertion (Ser-Asp) within the Ala(267)-Ser(275) loop. Similar to related KPC variants, KPC-82 showed decreased carbapenemase activity when expressed in a heterologous background and remained susceptible to carbapenem/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations.
