Extensive capsule locus variation and large-scale genomic recombination within the <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> clonal complex 258/11

2014-10-27

Abstract excerpt

Klebsiella pneumoniae clonal complex (CC) 258/11, comprising sequence types (STs) 258, 11 and closely related STs, is associated with dissemination of the K. pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC). Hospital outbreaks of KPC CC258/11 infections have been observed globally and are very difficult to treat. As a consequence there is renewed interest in alternative infection control measures such as vaccines and phage or depo...
