The diversity of Klebsiella pneumoniae surface polysaccharides
Klebsiella pneumoniae is considered an urgent health concern due to the emergence of multi-drug-resistant strains for which vaccination offers a potential remedy. Vaccines based on surface polysaccharides are highly promising but need to address the high diversity of surface-exposed polysaccharides, synthesized as O-antigens (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) and K-antigens (capsule polysaccharide, CPS)...
متن کاملCatabolite repression of the citrate fermentation genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae: evidence for involvement of the cyclic AMP receptor protein.
Klebsiella pneumoniae is able to grow anaerobically with citrate as a sole carbon and energy source by a fermentative pathway involving the Na(+)-dependent citrate carrier CitS, citrate lyase, and oxaloacetate decarboxylase. The corresponding genes are organized in the divergent citC and citS operons, whose expression is strictly dependent on the citrate-sensing CitA-CitB two-component system. ...
متن کاملExtractive Capacity of Oleyl Alcohol on 2, 3-Butanediol Production in Fermentation Process with Use of Klebsiella pneumoniae PTCC 1290
Recovery of metabolites from fermentation broth by solvent extraction can be used to optimize fermentation processes. End-product reutilization, low product concentration and large volumes of fermentation broth and the requirements for large bioreactors, in addition to the high cost largely contributed to the decline in fermentative 2,3-butanediol production. Extraction can successfully be ...
متن کاملEditorial Commentary: Genomic Epidemiology: Revealing Hidden Reservoirs for Klebsiella pneumoniae
Classically defined infectious disease epidemiology is being upended by the replacement of low-resolution phenotypic and molecular technologies with highresolution whole-genome shotgun sequencing of pathogens. The evolution of molecular epidemiology has been under way for 10 years, but the speed of the transition has recently quickened. Previously unrecognized pathogen reservoirs and modes of t...
متن کاملGenomic Epidemiology of an Endoscope-Associated Outbreak of Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase (KPC)-Producing K. pneumoniae
Increased incidence of infections due to Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) was noted among patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) at a single hospital. An epidemiologic investigation identified KPC-Kp and non-KPC-producing, extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Kp in cultures from 2 endoscopes. Genotypi...
