Two-Component Response Regulator OmpR Regulates Mucoviscosity through Energy Metabolism in Klebsiella pneumoniae

ABSTRACT Hypermucoviscosity is a hallmark of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP). However, the molecular basis of its regulation is largely unknown. We hypothesize that hypermucoviscosity is modulated via two-component signal transduction systems (TCSs). In-frame deletion mutants of all 33 re...
