2025-10-10
Abstract excerpt
Multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR Kp ), are a public health emergency. The predominant CR Kp sequence type worldwide is ST258. However, the factors underlying ST258’s epidemic success are not well defined. The understudied two-component system CrrAB is a genomic feature of ST258 and has been hypothesized to contribute to its global dominance. D...
