The cells of Klebsiella species possess a polysaccharide capsule that is an important virulence factor contributing to their pathogenic potential by protecting against phagocytosis and antimicrobial substances. They exhibit a rod-shaped morphology with a size measuring approximately 1-2 microns in length. Klebsiella spp commonly colonizes the human gastrointestinal tract and respiratory system where they can coexist without causing harm under normal circumstances.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThis group of bacteria functions as opportunistic pathogens often forming biofilms that contribute to their resilience and pathogenicity. Klebsiella spp play roles in nitrogen cycling as they can fix atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia benefiting their surrounding environments. This ability links them to a multi-enzyme complex facilitating processes important for nitrogen utilization and metabolism. The capsule and lipopolysaccharide layers they produce significantly enhance their survival and capability to cause infections by impeding the immune system.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nKlebsiella spp are involved in various microbial metabolic pathways notably those associated with nitrogen fixation and carbohydrate metabolism. They participate in denitrification impacting nitrogen availability in the environment and closely interact with other microbial species in these metabolic processes. Klebsiella species share interactions with proteins such as nitrogenase enzymes important for converting atmospheric nitrogen to a biologically usable form emphasizing their role in ecological and host-microbe interactions.\u003cbr\u003e\nKlebsiella spp are associated with healthcare-associated infections like pneumonia and urinary tract infections. These bacteria frequently cause respiratory infections especially in immunocompromised individuals such as those with chronic lung disease or diabetes. They contribute to diseases by producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) enzymes that confer resistance to many beta-lactam antibiotics. Proteins like fimbriae enhance their ability to adhere to host tissues exacerbating their role in opportunistic infections.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46860513804457,"sku":"ab69468","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab69468","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
