Clostridium difficile PCR ribotype 018 has emerged in Italy, South Korea, and Japan, causing severe infections and outbreaks. In this study, we sequenced the genome of IT1118, an Italian clinical isolate, to clarify the molecular features contributing to the success of this epidemic type.
艰难梭菌PCR核糖体分型018已在意大利、韩国和日本出现,引发严重感染和疫情暴发。在本研究中,我们对一株意大利临床分离株IT1118的基因组进行了测序,以阐明促成这种流行类型成功传播的分子特征。
