<i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> L-Fucose metabolism promotes gastrointestinal colonization and modulates its virulence determinants
2022-05-19
Abstract excerpt
Colonization of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract by Klebsiella pneumoniae ( K. pneumoniae ) is generally considered asymptomatic. However, gut colonization allows K. pneumoniae to either translocate to sterile site within the same host or transmit through the fecal-oral route to another host. K. pneumoniae gut colonization is poorly understood, but knowledge of this first step toward infection and spread is cri...
