Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To investigate the in vivo evolution of the mucoid-phenotype of ST11-KL64 carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) isolated from the same patients and gain insights into diverse evolution and biology of these strains. METHODS: Whole genome sequencing and bioinformatic analysis were used to determine the mutation involved in the mucoid phenotype of ST11-KL64 CRKP. Gene knockout, bacterial morphology...
