Could the shape of phylogenetic trees contain hidden information? Siqi Liu, Sarah Svensson & Daniel Falush show that the "backboned" shape of the phylogenetic tree of #Klebsiella pneumoniae may reveal a history of diversifying selection on an unknown trait.

#Mexico, SSa locates #Klebsiella oxytoca bacteria in 3 public #hospitals and one private hospital in #Edomex; 13 #children have died, https://www.eluniversal.com.mx/nacion/ssa-localiza-bacteria-klebsiella-oxytoca-en-tres-hospitales-publicos-y-uno-privado-de-edomex-hay-13-menores-muertos

An #outbreak of #Klebsiella oxytoca in the State of Mexico has caused concern after the death of 13 children between 0 and 14 years old , according to the Ministry of Health (Ssa) through the General Directorate of Epidemiology (DGE). The deaths occurred in different medical units in the state.

El 28 de noviembre, la Dirección de Información Epidemiológica dio el aviso de que en 3 #hospitales infantiles del EDOMEX se estaban registrando niños con infecciones del torrente sanguíneo. Al día siguiente ya había identificado 19 casos de esos tres centros públicos y en una clínica privada.

Een onderzoek naar bacteriën bij oorlogsslachtoffers in ziekenhuizen in #Oekraïne een jaar geleden toonde aan dat sommige bacteriesoorten volledig resistent waren tegen #antibiotica. Nu hebben dezelfde onderzoekers de besmettelijkheid van deze bacteriën onderzocht. De bacterie #Klebsiella pneumoniae, die resistent is tegen alle antibiotica, is ook bijzonder agressief en gevaarlijk. https://www.duurzaamnieuws.nl/gevaarlijke-en-resistente-klebsiella-bacterie-duikt-op-in-oekraine/

Anyone know if it's common for two plasmids within the same K. pneumoniae strain to both encode rmpA (regulator of mucoid phenotype)? #Klebsiella #plasmids

Nice study.

Since the outbreak of the #war in #Ukraine, certain hospital #pathogens that are #resistant to many #antibiotics have been detected much more frequently in #German #hospitals. The pathogen #Klebsiella #pneumoniae is also resistant to the reserve antibiotics of #carbapenems due to a combination of two #enzymes.

Definitely a team effort to get this one out. :)

We've isolated a novel phage that can disrupt established biofilms ... but it doesn't encode a depolymerase or exhibit depolymerase activity. I think this one is going to keep us busy for a long time.

Time for my #introduction ! I’m an Assistant Professor at the Institute of Microbiology and Infection, University of Birmingham. Me and my team study #AMR in G-ves, mostly E. Coli & #Klebsiella. We look at plasmid mediated AMR such as #ESBLs and carbapenamases, understanding their fundamental biology and looking at how we can stop them! Still learning this platform!
