Insertion sequences accelerate genomic convergence of multidrug resistance and hypervirulence in Klebsiella pneumoniae via capsular phase variation by Da-Wei Wei, Yuqin Song, Yi Li, Gang Zhang, Qi Chen, Linhuan Wu, Jiangqing Huang, Xueru Tian, Chao Wang, Jie Feng

“…However, during long-term intestinal colonization, IS element excision restored capsule expression, leading to the recovery of hypervirulence and enhanced colonization efficiency. Conclusions Our findings reveal that IS elements mediate capsular phase variation by toggling gene activity, accelerating the genomic convergence of multidrug resistance and hypervirulence in K. pneumoniae, as well as facilitating adaptive transitions in different environments.…”
