The World Health Organization has classified carbapenem-resistant\n                    <jats:italic>A. baumannii<\/jats:italic>\n                    as a \u201cCritical Priority\u201d pathogen to guide research and the development of control and prevention strategies. Epidemiological surveillance methodologies provide the tools necessary for classifying\n                    <jats:italic>A. baumannii<\/jats:italic>\n                    into international clonal lineages, facilitating the analysis of molecular characteristics, global dissemination, and evolution. This study provides a detailed analysis of the molecular epidemiology of\n                    <jats:italic>A. baumannii<\/jats:italic>\n                    in Mexico, focusing on identifying the main international clonal lineages. Genomic analyses of 146 genomes, along with information from previous studies, identified 24 different sequence types according to the Oxford Scheme. The major international clone IC2 (CC208) was identified and harbors \u03b2-lactamases OXA-66, ADC-30, OXA-72, and is predicted to possess the OCL1 locus. The international clone IC5 (CC205) carries \u03b2-lactamase OXA-65, along with ADC-214 and OXA-239, with OCL10 predicted in 82.2% of the genomes. The international clone IC7 (CC229) harbors \u03b2-lactamase OXA-64, as well as ADC-174 and ADC-214, with OCL6 and OCL7 loci predicted. These international clones were identified in different periods and regions of Mexico and are likely to be widely distributed throughout the country. The analysis of each lineage reveals distinct molecular characteristics, including sequence types, capsule typing, outer core loci, and specific antibiotic resistance profiles. Understanding these features is crucial for elucidating their roles in infection dynamics, resistance mechanisms, and their impact on clinical outcomes.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fcimb.2024.1499839","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,10]],"date-time":"2025-01-10T02:57:34Z","timestamp":1736477854000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Genomic analysis of the main epidemiological lineages of Acinetobacter baumannii in Mexico"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Barrios-Camacho","family":"Humberto","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lozano-Aguirre","family":"Luis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Duran-Bedolla","family":"Josefina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fmicb.2019.02116","article-title":"Carbapenem-resistant acinetobacter baumannii in three tertiary care hospitals in Mexico: virulence profiles, innate immune response and clonal dissemination","volume":"10","author":"Alc\u00e1ntar-Curiel","year":"2019","journal-title":"Front.
