<h4>Background</h4>fosA3 is the most commonly reported plasmid-mediated fosfomycin resistance gene among Enterobacteriaceae.<h4>Objectives</h4>To identify the origin of fosA3.<h4>Methods</h4>The chromosome of Kluyvera georgiana clinical strain YDC799 was fully sequenced with single-molecule real-time sequencing. Comparative genetic analysis was performed for K. georgiana YDC799, K. georgiana type strain ATCC 51603 and representative fosA3-carrying plasmids. fosA genes were cloned in Escherichia ...[more]
