Abstract

This is the first report of the coexistence of <i>bla</i> <sub>NDM-1</sub>, <i>bla</i> <sub>OXA-48</sub>, <i>bla</i> <sub>CTX-M</sub> and <i>bla</i> <sub>SHV</sub> genes on a high-risk lineage ST147 from Pakistan. This study highlights the successful dissemination of carbapenemase resistance genes in the high-risk clones that emphasizes the importance of monitoring and controlling the spread of these diverse clones globally.
