Population genomics of hypervirulent <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> clonal group 23 reveals early emergence and rapid global dissemination

2017-12-07

Abstract excerpt

Since the mid-1980s there have been increasing reports of severe community-acquired pyogenic liver abscess, meningitis and bloodstream infections caused by hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae , predominantly encompassing clonal group (CG) 23 serotype K1 strains. Common features of CG23 include a virulence plasmid associated with iron scavenging and hypermucoidy, and a chromosomal integrative and conjugative eleme...
