Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Klebsiella pneumoniae poses a critical global health threat due to its increasing resistance to polymyxin, the last-line antibiotic. Outer membrane remodelling, mediated by various two-component systems (TCS), is primarily involved in the development of polymyxin resistance (PolR). This study conducted an in-depth analysis of mutations within TCS-associated genes that contribute to PolR in K....
