Article Synopsis
- The species discussed is significant in healthcare-associated infections and has developed resistance, particularly to carbapenems, but research on its colonization and virulence mechanisms is limited compared to other species.*
-
- The study identifies the type 3 fimbria in some Chilean isolates, which plays a key role in the bacteria's ability to adhere to surfaces and cells, with mutants lacking the fimbria exhibiting reduced adhesion.*
-
- While the type 3 fimbria is not commonly found (5.94-7.37% occurrence) across all variants, it appears in some strains associated with infections, suggesting its potential importance in the survival and fitness of certain subtypes.*
