  • Description: A carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PA1011 (ST463) was isolated from a patient in a surgical intensive care unit. PCR detection showed that PA1011 carried the [bla.sub.KPC-2] gene. A plasmid was isolated and sequenced using the Illumina NextSeq 500 and PacBio RSII sequencing platforms. The plasmid was named pPA1011 and carried the carbapenem-resistant gene [bla.sub.KPC-2] pPA1011 was a 62,793 bp in length with an average G+C content of 58.8%. It was identified as a novel plasmid and encoded a novel genetic environment of [bla.sub.KPC-2] gene (AIS6-Tn3-ISKpn8-[bla.sub.KPC-2]-ISKpn6-IS26). Keywords: plasmid, genetic environment, KPC, ST463, Pseudomonas aeruginosa
