All mutations are at the amino acid level unless otherwise specified.

Abbreviations: ∆, deletion; FS, frameshift; I, intermediate; Int, interpretation; MIC, minimum inhibitory concentration; MPM, meropenem; ND, not determined; NS, not sequenced; nt, nucleotide; R, resistant; S, susceptible; ST, sequence type; X, stop codon.

aOnly inactivating mutations (frameshifts, premature stop codons) are listed.

bDeletion of nt 38-47.

cDeletion of nt 1-84.

dDeletion of nt 62-74.

eMPM MICs not determined. Results shown are as reported by Oregon Health and Science University microbiology using VITEK2.

fInsertion of nt GG at position 484.
