Worldwide emergence of colistin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae from healthy humans and patients in Lao PDR, Thailand, Israel, Nigeria and France owing to inactivation of the PhoP/PhoQ regulator mgrB : an epidemiological and molecular study

Highlights • The human gut can harbour clonally unrelated colistin-resistant K. pneumoniae. • Mutation in mgrB is an emerging mechanism associated with colistin resistance. • mgrB mutations account for higher resistance than mutations in pmrAB or phoPQ.
