The global emergence of OXA-48-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clones is a significant threat to public health. We used WGS and phylogenetic analysis of Spanish isolates to investigate the population structure of bla(OXA-48-like)-expressing K. pneumoniae ST11 and ST405 and to determine the distribution of resistance genes and plasmids encoding bla(OXA-48-like) carbapenemases. SNPs identified in whole-genome sequences were used to reconstruct phylogenetic trees, identify resistance determinants and de novo assemble the genomes of 105 bla(OXA-48-like)-expressing K. pneumoniae isolates. Genome variation was generally lower in outbreak-associated isolates compared with those associated with sporadic infections. The relatively limited variation observed within the outbreak-associated isolates was on average 7-10 SNPs per outbreak. Of 24 isolates from suspected sporadic infections, 7 were very closely related to isolates causing hospital outbreaks and 17 were more diverse and therefore probably true sporadic cases. On average, 14 resistance genes were identified per isolate. The 17 ST405 isolates from sporadic cases of infection had four distinct resistance gene profiles, while the resistance gene profile differed in all ST11 isolates from sporadic cases. Sequence analysis of 94 IncL/M plasmids carrying bla(OXA-48-like) genes revealed an average of two SNP differences, indicating a conserved plasmid clade. Whole-genome sequence analysis enabled the discrimination of outbreak and sporadic isolates. Significant inter-regional spread within Spain of highly related isolates was evident for both ST11 and ST405 K. pneumoniae. IncL/M plasmids carrying bla(OXA-48-like) carbapenemase genes were highly conserved geographically and across the outbreaks, sporadic cases and clones.
