Abstract
En 中文
Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) is a critical-priority organism due to prevalent last-line antibiotic resistance. Alternative treatments, including vaccines and monoclonal antibodies (mAb), depend on antigen (Ag) expression at infection sites for immunotherapeutic activity. However, the relationship between genome-encoded Ag presence and Ag expression is often overlooked. Here, we use the KP type 3 fimbrial (T3F) subunit MrkA as a prototype to build a generalisable framework to assess Ag expression and its correlation with in vivo immunotherapeutic efficacy.
