Genetic and Functional Analysis of the pks Gene in Clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
The pks gene cluster encodes colibactin, which can cause DNA damage and enhance the virulence in Escherichia coli. However, the role of the pks gene in Klebsiella pneumoniae has not been fully discussed.

Multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from clinical isolates at dr. Soeradji Tirtonegoro central hospital Klaten

JKKI (Jurnal Kedokteran dan Kesehatan Indonesia), 2020
Background: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative bacterium that often causes nosocomial infections. Use of broad-spectrum antibiotics as an empiric therapy has contributed to increases of K.

Natural antibiotic susceptibility of Klebsiella pneumoniae, K. oxytoca, K. planticola, K. ornithinolytica and K. terrigena strains [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2001
The natural susceptibility of 221 Klebsiella strains to 71 antibiotics was examined. The strains were isolated from clinical specimens and the environment, and belonged to K. pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae (n = 40), K. pneumoniae subsp. ozaenae (37), K. pneumoniae subsp. rhinoscleromatis (10), K. oxytoca (44), K. planticola (40), K.

Complete Genome Sequence of Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase-Producing K. pneumoniae Myophage Miro [PDF]

Genome Announcements, 2015
ABSTRACT Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative pathogen frequently associated with antibiotic-resistant nosocomial infections. Bacteriophage therapy against K. pneumoniae may be possible to combat these infections.

Cell Membrane Remodeling Mediates Polymyxin B Resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae: An Integrated Proteomics and Metabolomics Study

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Polymyxin B (PB) is introduced into the clinic as the last-line therapy against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). Unfortunately, increased resistance to PB in Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) has threatened global health. Resistance

Multiple Colonization with S. pneumoniae before and after Introduction of the Seven-Valent Conjugated Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Simultaneous carriage of more than one strain of Streptococcus pneumoniae promotes horizontal gene transfer events and may lead to capsule switch and acquisition of antibiotic resistance. We studied the epidemiology of cocolonization with S.

Comparative phylogenomics of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated from invasive disease and nasopharyngeal carriage from West Africans. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: We applied comparative phylogenomics (whole genome comparisons of microbes using DNA microarrays combined with Bayesian-based phylogenies) to investigate S.

Clinical and Molecular Characteristics and Antibacterial Strategies of Klebsiella pneumoniae in Pyogenic Infection

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Treatment of Klebsiella pneumoniae causing pyogenic infections is challenging. The clinical and molecular characteristics of Klebsiella pneumoniae causing pyogenic infections are poorly understood, and antibacterial treatment strategies are limited.

K. pneumoniae: ¿The new “superbacteria”? Pathogenicity, epidemiology and resistance mechanisms K. pneumoniae: ¿la nueva

Iatreia, 2010
The antimicrobial resistance is an increasing problem of public health. Klebsiella pneumoniae has become one of the most important pathogens because it is a frequent cause of nosocomial and community acquired infections and it has pathogenicity mechanisms like capsules, adhesive properties mediated by specialized estructures (pillis) and siderophores ...

SMC is recruited to oriC by ParB and promotes chromosome segregation in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]

, 2011
Segregation of replicated chromosomes is an essential process in all organisms. How bacteria, such as the oval-shaped human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae, efficiently segregate their chromosomes is poorly understood.
