Klebsiella pneumoniae strain 4300STDY6470419

Klebsiella pneumoniae strain 4300STDY6470419 is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that exhibits a facultative anaerobic metabolism, utilizing chemoheterotrophy as its energy source. It typically arranges itself in chains, pairs, or singles and possesses flagella, allowing for mobility. The strain is mesophilic, with an optimal growth temperature of 37°C, and has a single replicon and two membranes. This organism is notably free-living but is also associated with various hosts, including Homo sapiens, Gallus gallus, and several other metazoans, as well as Viridiplantae and Danio rerio. Its pathogenicity is significant in humans, where it causes a variety of health effects such as bacteremia, urinary tract infections, pneumonia, and sepsis, among others. The strain is implicated in both community-acquired and nosocomial infections, affecting multiple systems including the urinary tract, liver, and respiratory system. Given its ability to thrive in diverse environments and its association with numerous hosts, Klebsiella pneumoniae strain 4300STDY6470419 exemplifies the complexities of microbial interactions within ecosystems. Its pathogenic potential highlights the importance of understanding such bacteria in order to manage and prevent infections in both human and veterinary contexts.
