Rifampicin exerts anti-mucoviscous activity against hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae via binding to the RNA polymerase β subunit

ABSTRACT: Objectives: In hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP), the hypermucoviscous capsule is known to be a major virulence determinant. We previously discovered that rifampicin (RFP), a bactericidal drug that binds to and inhibits the β subunit of RNA polymerase (RpoB), elicits anti-mucovis...
