Diversity of Capsular Polysaccharide Gene Clusters in Kpc-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates of Sequence Type 258 Involved in the Italian Epidemic

13 May 2014

Abstract excerpt

Strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing KPC-type beta-lactamases (KPC-Kp) are broadly disseminating worldwide and constitute a major healthcare threat given their extensively drug resistant phenotypes and ability to rapidly disseminate in healthcare settings. In this work we report on the characterization of two different capsular polysaccharide (CPS) gene clusters, named cpsBO-4 and cps207-2, from two KPC-Kp...
