Whole Genome Sequencing of an Extensively Drug-Resistant Raoultella planticola Isolate Containing bla KPC-2 , bla NDM-1 , and bla CTX-M-15 .

harboring genes that confer resistance to antimicrobials, such as carbapenems, have been associated with severe infections in immunocompromised patients. In this study, we reported the first whole genome sequence of a Brazilian isolate of and the genomic context of antibiotic resistance markers. By whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of a carbapenem-resistant isolate, RpHUM1, we found 23 resistance-encoding genes belonging to 9 classes of antibiotics (aminoglycosides, β-lactams, fluoroquinolones, fosfomycin, macrolides, phenicols, sulfonamides, tetracycline, and diaminopyrimidine derivatives) and 3 plasmids (RpHUM1pEaer-4382s, RpHUM1_pFDAARGOS_440, and RpHUM1pRSF1010). This isolate coharbored the genes , which is carried by the plasmid RpHUM1pEaer-4382s, and and all located in the accessory genome. In addition, these genes were associated with, at least, one mobile genetic element. This comprehensive knowledge is of great importance for implementation of control measures to prevent the rapid dissemination of this neglected microorganism and their genetic resistance background.
