Abstract
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriales (CPE) represent an emerging threat for global public health and a serious problem for clinicians due to the limited available treatment options. The emergence of CPE has been recently described worldwide by describing different antimicrobial mechanisms. Here, we describe a CPE carrying dual-carbapenemase isolated in Italy and we provide a deep characterization of the antimicrobial resistance genes, virulence-factors and prophage regions within the genome.
