While the genomes of carbapenemase-positive XDR-KP strains are well-documented, there is limited data on carbapenemase-negative XDR-KP. This study characterized the genomes of two such clinical isolates, obtained from abdominal fluid and urine, that were resistant to nearly all tested antibiotics. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed at the Hamilton Regional Microbiology Laboratory, ON. Carbapenemase production and the presence of carbapenemase genes were assessed using the NG-Test\n                    <jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup>\n                    CARBA-5 and a multiplex carbapenemase PCR assay, respectively. Whole-genome sequencing via Oxford Nanopore technology revealed that both strains lacked carbapenemase genes but harbored multiple other resistance genes (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">e.g., bla<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>CTX-M-15<\/jats:sub>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">qnr<\/jats:italic>\n                    B1\/S1,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">sul<\/jats:italic>\n                    1\/2,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">dfr<\/jats:italic>\n                    A17\/A14,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">fos<\/jats:italic>\n                    A) and\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">acr<\/jats:italic>\n                    R mutations.

A number of antibiotic resistance genes were found on conjugative plasmids (IncFIB\/IncFII, IncFIA, IncFIA\/IncFII). Multilocus sequence typing identified different sequence types (ST307, ST45) and virulence profiling showed overlapping and distinct features, including variability in capsular and siderophore genes. These findings suggest a significant role for porin loss and efflux pump regulation in conferring resistance to broad-spectrum and last-resort antibiotics in clinical XDR-KP isolates that lack carbapenemases and other related antibiotic resistance genes.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/10766294261448418","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,7]],"date-time":"2026-05-07T12:57:52Z","timestamp":1778158672000},"page":"271-279","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Genome Analysis of Carbapenemase-Negative, Extensively Drug-Resistant\n                    <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae<\/i>\n                    Clinical Isolates"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Zareen","family":"Fatima","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Research Institute at St. Joe\u2019s Hamilton, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marissa L.","family":"Ledger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Hamilton Regional Laboratory Medicine Program, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Domenica G.","family":"De Luca","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Research Institute at St. Joe\u2019s Hamilton, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Clayton W.","family":"Hall","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Hamilton Regional Laboratory Medicine Program, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anamaria","family":"Zbucea","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hamilton Regional Laboratory Medicine Program, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Candy","family":"Rutherford","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hamilton Regional Laboratory Medicine Program, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daniela","family":"Leto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Hamilton Regional Laboratory Medicine Program, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Padman","family":"Jayaratne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Hamilton Regional Laboratory Medicine Program, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marek","family":"Smieja","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Research Institute at St. Joe\u2019s Hamilton, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Hamilton Regional Laboratory Medicine Program, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4658-7949","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammad Rubayet","family":"Hasan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Research Institute at St. Joe\u2019s Hamilton, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."},{"name":"Hamilton Regional Laboratory Medicine Program, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(24)01867-1"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1473-3099(13)70190-7"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1469-0691.12427"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jac\/dkaa192"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/srep15082"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-0691.2011.03570.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/AAC.02457-17"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_3_2_9_1","article-title":"Genomic analysis of a pan-resistant isolate of Klebsiella pneumoniae","volume":"9","author":"de Man TJB","year":"2018","unstructured":"8.de Man TJB, , Lutgring JD, , Lonsway DR, et al.
