, a member of the autochthonous human gut microbiota, utilizes a variety of virulence factors for survival and pathogenesis. Consequently, it is responsible for several human infections, including urinary tract infections, respiratory tract infections, liver abscess, meningitis, bloodstream infections, and medical device-associated infections. The main studied virulence factors in are capsule-associated, fimbriae, siderophores, ferric iron uptake, and the ability to metabolize allantoin.
