Abstract
Here we completely sequenced four mcr-1-haboring plasmids, isolated from two extended-spectrum-β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli and two carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates. The mcr-1-harboring plasmids from an E. coli sequence type 2448 (ST2448) isolate and two K. pneumoniae ST25 isolates were identical (all pMCR1-IncX4), belonging to the IncX4 incompatibility group, while the plasmid from an E. coli ST2085 isolate (pMCR1-IncI2) belongs to the IncI2 group. A nearly identical 2.6-kb mcr-1-pap2 element was found to be shared by all mcr-1-carrying plasmids.Entities:
