TL;DR
This paper reports the complete genome sequence of a Klebsiella pneumoniae strain from Turkey that produces the antibiotic resistance gene OXA-48.
Contribution
The study provides the complete genome sequence of a clinically relevant OXA-48-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strain.
Findings
The genome belongs to sequence type 14 and includes three plasmids.
An IncL plasmid carrying the blaOXA-48 gene was identified.
Abstract
We announce the complete genome sequence of Klebsiella pneumoniae strain 11978 isolated from a patient hospitalized in Turkey in 2001. The genome belongs to sequence type 14 and includes three plasmids. Notably, it presents an IncL plasmid carrying blaOXA-48, which demonstrated global success in terms of dissemination.
