Abstract Background Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) infections poses global challenges, with limited options available for targeted therapy. Polymyxin was been regarded as one of the most important last-resort antimicrobial agents. Many factors could accelerate the resistance evolution of polymyxin. Insertion sequence (IS) inserted into mgrB is the main polymyxin resistance mechanism in K. pneumoniae. In this study, two CRKPs (KP31157 and KP31311) were isolated from the urine of a patient, shifting from susceptible to resistant as the mgrB inserted by ISkpn14. We intended to explore the origin of the IS and underlying mechanisms resulting in polymyxin resistance. Methods The within-host evolution relationship and molecular features of both CRKPs were determined by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and whole-genome sequencing (WGS). pKP31311_KPC-2 plasmid genome structures contained in the above two CRKPs were aligned with the homologic plasmids, retrieved from the NCBI genome database via comparative genomic analysis. The plasmids encoding ISkpn14 elements flanked by direct repeat (DR) or not were analyzed. The mRNA expression, plasmid curing and in vitro antibiotics inducing experiment were employed to understand the potential mechanism of polymyxin resistance. Results Both strains, sharing homology, exhibited polymyxin resistance due to the insertion of ISkpn14 into the mgrB gene, influenced by minocycline exposure. Minocycline and tigecycline could accelerate polymyxin resistance (P |
