The genetic characterization of blaNDM-1- and blaIMP-4- plasmids in ST1120. The blaNDM-1 gene was in a plasmid containing blaNDM-1, blaSHV-12, and blaSHV-35 resistance genes. The blaNDM-1- containing plasmid (a) was compared with previous published plasmid PZHDC33 carrying blaNDM-1 (b). A partial insertion sequence element, IS5, was located upstream of the blaNDM-1, bleMBL, and tat genes. The blaSHV-12 was downstream of the DeoR gene. The genetic characterization of blaIMP-carrying plasmid (c) was partially sequenced and presented
