Abstract

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter junii isolate co-carried bla_VIM-2 and bla_NDM-1 in different plasmids. bla_NDM-1- and bla_VIM-2-carrying plasmids were characterized using the whole genome sequencing. The expression of bla_NDM-1 was higher than that of bla_VIM-2. bla_NDM-1-carrying plasmid was conjugally transferred to various Gram-negative bacterial species. The transferability of bla_NDM-1-carrying plasmid raises concerns about the potential spread of carbapenem resistance across diverse bacterial populations.
