This project has been my first using only long-read sequence data (ONT 10.4.1) - it's been great - makes my days of assembling plasmids from short-read data + molecular work seem like a very long time ago. .

It's been evolving in the hospital through the actions of smaller MGEs. We've seen IS26-mediated inversions and acquisitions of various IS/transposons, including carriers of heavy metal resistance genes.

pQEB1 carries the KPC-2 carbapenemase gene, and has been found in multiple bacterial hosts - genera, species and STs. Its precise structure is unique and has yet to be seen outside England's West Midlands
