Genomic characterization and functional insights of multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain BCSIR-JUMIID.

The article discusses the genomic characterization and functional insights of a multidrug-resistant strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae, a pathogen associated with high morbidity and mortality rates in healthcare settings. The study focuses on the genetic architecture, resistance mechanisms, and virulence factors of the MDR strain isolated from pharmaceutical wastewater in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The research highlights the presence of antibiotic resistance genes, virulence factors, and phage defense mechanisms in the genome of the Klebsiella pneumoniae strain, emphasizing the need for continued surveillance and novel therapeutic strategies to combat MDR infections effectively.
