Genomic Analysis of Multidrug-Resistant Hypervirulent (Hypermucoviscous) Klebsiella pneumoniae Strain Lacking the Hypermucoviscous Regulators (rmpA/rmpA2)
28 Apr 2022
Abstract excerpt
Hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (hvKP) strains possess distinct characteristics such as hypermucoviscosity, unique serotypes, and virulence factors associated with high pathogenicity. To better understand the genomic characteristics and virulence profile of the isolated hvKP strain, genomic data were compared to the genomes of the hypervirulent and typical K. pneumoniae strains. The K. pneumoniae strain was isolated...
