Plasmid-Mediated Imipenem-Hydrolyzing Enzyme KPC-2 among Multiple Carbapenem-Resistant Escherichia coli Clones in Israel

Carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli is rare. We report four genetically unrelated carbapenem-resistant E. coli isolates cultured from four patients hospitalized in Tel Aviv Medical Center. PCR, sequencing, and Southern blot analysis identified KPC-2 as the imipenem-hydrolyzing enzyme in all fo...
