Genome-Wide Screening for Enteric Colonization Factors in Carbapenem-Resistant ST258 <named-content content-type="genus-species">Klebsiella pneumoniae</named-content>

ABSTRACT A diverse, antibiotic-naive microbiota prevents highly antibiotic-resistant microbes, including carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-Kp), from achieving dense colonization of the intestinal lumen. Antibiotic-mediated destruction of the microbiota leads to expansion of CR-Kp in the...
