Emergence of the mobile colistin resistance gene mcr-1 in a Leclercia adecarboxylata strain isolated from wastewater in Seoul

Colistin is considered the last resort for treating infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria. However, the spread of the plasmid-borne colistin-resistance gene mcr-1 has become a public health threat. In this study, we identified mcr-1-harboring Leclercia adecarboxylata strain (WWCOL-134) i...
