Molecular epidemiology of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates in a university hospital in Nepal reveals the emergence of a novel epidemic clonal lineage

Highlights • Three major clonal lineages (CC1, CC2 and CC149) were detected among multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter baumannii isolates at a single institution. • The complete genome of one A. baumannii isolate belonging to the novel CC149 clonal lineage was sequenced. • These isolates containe...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Three major clonal lineages (CC1, CC2 and CC149) were detected among multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter baumannii isolates at a single institution. • The complete genome of one A. baumannii isolate belonging to the novel CC149 clonal lineage was sequenced. • These isolates contained NDM-1, OXA-23 or OXA-58 carbapenemases and 16S rRNA methylase ArmA. • MDR and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) susceptibility profiles were determined for these isolates.
