Characterization of plasmids mediating carbapenem resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae in Pretoria, South Africa

Project description:The study aimed to characterize plasmids mediating carbepenem resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae in Pretoria, South Africa. We analysed 56 K. pneumoniae isolates collected from academic hospital around Pretoria. Based on phenotypic and molecular results of these isolates, 6 representative isolates were chosen for further analysis using long reads sequencing platform. We observed multidrug resistant phenotype in all these isolates, including resistance to aminoglycosides, tetracycline, phenicol, fosfomycin, floroquinolones, and beta-lactams antibiotics. The blaOXA-48/181 and blaNDM-1/7 were manily the plasmid-mediated carbapenemases responsible for carbapenem resistance in the K. pneumoniae isolates in these academic hospitals. These carbapenemase genes were mainly associated with plasmid replicon groups IncF, IncL/M, IncA/C, and IncX3. This study showed plasmid-mediated carbapenemase spread of blaOXA and blaNDM genes mediated by conjugative plasmids in Pretoria hospitals.

Whole transcriptomic analysis of mechanisms of tolerance and resistance to chlorhexidine in carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical strains

Project description:The increasing resistence and/or bacterial tolerance to bactericides, such as chlorhexidine, causes worrisome public health problems. Using transcriptomical and microbiological studies, we analysed the molecular mechanisms associated with the adaptation to chlorhexidine in two carbapenemase-producing strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae belonging ST258-KPC3 and ST846-OXA48.

KPHS_28080 Emerges as a Novel Virulence Factor in Klebsiella pneumoniae through CpxR-Dependent Transcriptional Activation

Project description:Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important human pathogen, causing various infections. Apart from traditional virulence factors, there remains a significant gap in the discovery and research of new chromosomal virulence factors. CpxR is a two-component system (TCS) response regulator, but its impact on the virulence of Klebsiella pneumoniae have not been conclusively determined. For the effect of CpxR on K. pneumoniae virulence, the cpxR deletion(ΔcpxR) strain exhibited reduced serum resistance and attenuated pathogenicity in both Galleria mellonella larvae and mouse infection models compared to the wild-type strain. To identify CpxR-regulated virulence genes, RNA-seq analysis was conducted, followed by deletion of transcription downregulated genes in the ΔcpxR strain. Through serum resistance assays and Galleria mellonella infection experiments, a novel potential virulence factor, KPHS_28080, was identified. Deletion of KPHS_28080 impaired serum survival and proliferation in carbapenem-resistant strains HS11286 and hypervirulent strain ATCC 43816. Furthermore, the ATCC 43816 ΔKPHS_28080 strain showed significantly reduced colonization, proliferation, and multi-organ dissemination capacity in mice, accompanied by diminished pathogenicity. The KPHS_28080 promoter contains a conserved CpxR binding motif, where CpxR binding enhances promoter activity and elevates gene transcription. Sequence alignment revealed that KPHS_28080 is widely conserved across Klebsiella pneumoniae strains, establishing it as a novel chromosome-encoded virulence factor. These results provide a new insight into the CpxR regulation of K. pneumoniae virulence and chromosomal virulence factors.

Verfication of immunogenic nature by microarray screening

Project description:Screening of 14 novel proteins derived from Klebsiella pneumoniae MGH 78578 identified prior via screening of cDNA libraries. The full-length proteins were attached using a specific HaloTag to their corresponding ligand surface, HaloLink. Screening was performed using two different polyclonal antibodies to Klebsiella pneumoniae (Acris AP00792PU-N and Abcam ab20947) and detection achieved by Goat polyclonal to rabbit IgG conjugated with Chromeo-546 (Abcam ab60317). In order to assess their potential immungenic nature and rank the proteins investigated, comparative analysis using already described antigens from K. pneumoniae were used in the assay.
