Genomic and Functional Analysis of rmp Locus Variants in Klebsiella Pneumoniae
May 9, 2025
Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen and a leading cause of healthcare-associated infections in hospitals, which are frequently antimicrobial resistant (AMR). Exacerbating the public health threat posed by K. pneumoniae, some strains also harbour additional hypervirulence determinants. Virginia Miller, PhD, is investigating the genetic diversity, evolution, mobilisation, and prevalence of rmpADC in a...
