Biological and structural characterization of the Type 3 fimbrial subunit MrkA from Klebsiella pneumoniae. [PDF]
Abstract Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram‐negative opportunistic pathogen responsible for a wide range of community‐associated and hospital‐acquired infections and a major cause of neonatal sepsis in low‐ and middle‐income countries. The pathogen's surface fimbriae, particularly the Type 3 fimbriae, are critical for bacterial adhesion, biofilm formation,
