ABSTRACT
Klebsiella pneumoniae strain KP01 carrying blaGES-5 was identified from a patient in Guangzhou, China. High-throughput sequencing assigned blaGES-5 to a 28.5-kb nonconjugative plasmid, pGES-GZ. A 13-kb plasmid backbone sequence on pGES-GZ was found to share high sequence identities with plasmids from Gram-negative nonfermenters. A novel class 1 integron carrying a gene cassette array of orf28-orf28-blaGES-5 was identified on pGES-GZ, within which orf28 encoded a hypothetical protein possibly correlated to fosfomycin resistance.
