A corrigendum on
Molecular epidemiologyand mechanism of Klebsiella pneumoniae resistance to ertapenem but not to other carbapenems in China

by Wang, D., Wang, M., He, T., Li, D., Zhang, L., Zhang, D., Feng, J., Yang, W., and Yuan, Y. (2022). Front. Microbiol. 13:974990. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.974990

In the published article, there was an error. In the last sentence of the abstract, the expression of the outer membrane protein OmpK35 and efflux pump gene was incorrectly stated.

The sentence previously stated: “Mutations in ramR were demonstrated to cause efflux pump inhibition and over-expression of outer membrane protein OmpK35 in some strains, which is implicated in ertapenem resistance only in K. pneumoniae.”

The corrected sentence is: “Mutations in ramR were demonstrated to cause outer membrane protein OmpK35 inhibition and over-expression of efflux pump in some strains, which is implicated in ertapenem resistance only in K. pneumoniae.”

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
