Regulation of <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> mucoidy by the bacterial tyrosine kinase Wzc

2022-06-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Klebsiella pneumoniae is a frequent nosocomial pathogen associated with urinary tract infections (UTI), pneumonia, and septicemia. Two lineages of K. pneumoniae have emerged that challenge the treatment of these infections. One lineage includes hypervirulent strains, causing invasive community-acquired infections, and the other encompasses carbapenem-resistant isolates. Non-mucoid, carbapenem-r...
