A Gene, uge, Is Essential for Klebsiella pneumoniae Virulence
Klebsiella pneumoniae strains typically express both smooth lipopolysaccharide (LPS) with O antigen molecules and capsule polysaccharide (K antigen) on the surface. A single mutation in a gene that codes for a UDP galacturonate 4-epimerase (uge) renders a strain with the O(−):K(−) phenotype (lack of...
