Abstract

Significance: Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae has emerged globally as a multidrug-resistant hospital pathogen for which there are few treatment options. Clinical isolates classified by multilocus sequence typing (ST) as ST258 are the most widespread. The basis for the success of ST258 organisms above and beyond antibiotic resistance is not known, nor is it clear whether infections are caused by a single clone. We used genome sequencing to reveal unexpected genetic diversity among ST258 organisms (thus disproving the single-clone hypothesis) and identified a recombination hotspot that accounts for the majority of divergence—and presumably for serologic variation—among ST258 clinical isolates. Our findings will facilitate the development of new clinical strategies designed to prevent or treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
