Comparative genomics reveals plasmid-encoded genes associated with Klebsiella infection in colonized patients

2022-04-04

Abstract excerpt

Klebsiella frequently colonizes the gut and colonization is associated with subsequent infection. To identify genes associated with progression from colonization to infection, we undertook a case-control comparative genomics study. Concordant cases (N = 85), where colonizing and invasive Klebsiella isolates were identical strain types, were matched to asymptomatically colonizing controls (N = 160). Thirty-seven ge...
