Identification of a capsular variant and characterization of capsular acetylation in Klebsiella pneumoniae PLA-associated type K57
Klebsiella pneumoniae can cause community-acquired pyogenic liver abscess (PLA). Capsular polysaccharide (CPS) is important for its virulence. Among 79 capsular (K) types discovered thus far, K57 is often associated with PLA. Here, we report the identification of a K57 variant. Cps gene locus sequen...
