Genomic insights of the globally disseminated multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae Clonal Group 147. Multidrug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae ST147

In this study, we describe a pandrug resistant ST147 Kp clinical isolate from India exploring the genetics mechanism behind the observed phenotypic profile. Furthermore, we investigated the genomic insights of 218 K. pneumoniae CG147 whole-genome sequences publicly available in order to provide a deeper understanding of the evolution and global molecular epidemiology (phylogeny, antimicrobial resistance and virulence genes, plasmid profiles) of this increasingly successful MDR worldwide lineage.
