Acquisition of the Conjugative Virulence Plasmid From a CG23 Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae Strain Enhances Bacterial Virulence
The emergence of hypervirulent and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (hv-CRKP) has turn into a scorching subject and confounding drawback for clinicians and researchers alike. Conjugative virulence plasmids have the potential to trigger extra threatening dissemination of hv-CRKP strains. We beforehand recognized Ok2606, a CG23 scientific hypervirulent pressure of Klebsiella pneumoniae harboring a conjugative virulence plasmid...
