What is it about?

Different kluyvera species are the origin of the most relevant and pandemic beta-lactamases. Here we show that it is not only that, and some clinically relevant mechanisms for fosfomycin resistance are also obtained after recruiting the corresponding chromosomal genes in suitable platforms

Perspectives
