OXA-48-like enzymes represent the most frequently detected carbapenemases in Enterobacterales in Western Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. In contrast to other species, the presence of OXA-48-like in Proteus mirabilis leads to an unusually susceptible phenotype with low MICs for carbapenems and piperacillin-tazobactam, which is easily missed in the diagnostic laboratory. So far, there is little data available on the genetic environments of the corresponding genes, bla OXA-48 -like, in P. mirabilis. In this study susceptibility phenotypes and genomic data of 13 OXA-48-like-producing P...
