What happens when Klebsiella's capsule locus is swapped? Unexpectedly little in terms of cell growth. Yet, it does change the bacterium's environment and interactions with it: evolution by seamless plug-and-play capsule swap. Led by @julielebris.bsky.social @olayarendueles.bsky.social

So happy to see this finally published in @plosbiology.org!

This is the first chapter of @julielebris.bsky.social PhD thesis demonstrating how capsules are exchanged by plug-and-play dynamics

#AMR #Klebsiella cause >100,000 neonatal deaths globally each year.

Our new preprint shows more than half of #Klebsiella pneumoniae neonatal sepsis cases in African and South Asian are nosocomial, acquired through transmission in neonatal units. #WAAW

figure showing estimated proportion of cases in clusters, for each site. range from 0.04 to 0.93, mean estimate in random effects model is 0.57 [0.46,0.68]

Absolutely stoked to have this published in @plosbiology.org

We looked at the metabolism of #Klebsiella pneumoniae 🦠🧫. We not only demonstrated lineage-specific #metabolism, but that lineages can cross-feed and support each other.

Ever wondered how much bacterial parasites influence evolutionary outcomes of their host?
