Hippurate hydrolases encoded by <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> and <i>Klebsiella oxytoca</i> are functional

2026-07-28

Abstract excerpt

Human urine is non-sterile, harbouring its own microbiota (urobiota). Klebsiella species are commensals of the urobiota but can also cause urinary tract infections (UTIs). Gut-microbiota–host co-metabolites (MHCMs) such as hippurate are major components of urine. We previously showed UTI-associated strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae break down hippurate in human urine, though the enzymes responsible for this bioco...
