Characterization of an IncFII plasmid encoding NDM-1 from Escherichia coli ST131.
<h4>Background</h4>The current spread of the gene encoding the metallo-ß-lactamase NDM-1 in Enterobacteriaceae is linked to a variety of surrounding genetic structures and plasmid scaffolds.<h4>Methodology</h4>The whole sequence of plasmid pGUE-NDM carrying the bla(NDM-1) gen...
