Abstract

ABSTRACT The nucleotide sequence of a bla KPC-2 -harboring plasmid (pKPCAPSS) from Klebsiella pneumoniae ST273 isolated in Saint Petersburg, Russia, from a patient with history of recent travel to Vietnam is presented. This 127,970-bp plasmid possessed both IncFII and IncR replicons. bla KPC-2 was localized on a hypothetical mobile element. This element was flanked by 38-bp inverted Tn 3 repeats and included a Tn 3 -specific transposase gene, macrolide resistance operon ( mphA-mrx-mphR ), and a fragment of bla TEM with unique polymorphisms.
