Characterization and Functional Studies of a Novel Depolymerase Against K19-Type Klebsiella pneumoniae
Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP), a pathogen that causes severe nosocomial infections and yields a high mortality rate, poses a serious threat to global public health due to its high antimicrobial resistance. Bacteriophages encode polysaccharide-degrading enzymes referred to as depo...
