Bloodstream infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) strains have been a severe problem with high clinical costs and high mortality rates. The blaKPC-2-producing CRKP strain XPY20 was collected from the blood of a patient. The genome characteristics and antimicrobial resistance mechanisms were determined using next-generation sequencing.
