RES-Xre toxin-antitoxin locus knaAT maintains the stability of the virulence plasmid in Klebsiella pneumoniae

ABSTRACTHypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates have been increasingly reported worldwide, especially hypervirulent drug-resistant variants owing to the acquisition of a mobilizable virulence plasmid by a carbapenem-resistant strain. This pLVPK-like mobilizable plasmid encodes various virulence...
