Tylosin is widely used in livestock; however, the release of tylosin through animal manure can cause serious environmental problems. In this study, a new tylosin-degrading strain, TYL-T1, was isolated. Its phylogenetic similarity to Klebsiella oxytoca was found to be 99.17 %. TYL-T1 maintained good growth at 40 °C over a broad pH range (4.0-10). TYL-T1 degraded 99.34 % of tylosin in 36 h under optimal conditions (tylosin initial concentration: 25 mg/L, pH: 7.0, and temperature: 35 °C). After LC-MS-MS analysis, a new degradation pathway for tylosin was proposed, including ester bond breaking of the macrolide lactone ring, redox reaction, and loss of mycinose and mycarose. Based on a transcriptome analysis, 164 genes essential for degradation were upregulated through hydrolysis and redox of tylosin. Among various transferases, lipopolysaccharide methyltransferase, glycogen glucosyltransferase, and fructotransferase were responsible for tylosin degradation. The present study revealed the degradation mechanism of tylosin and highlighted the potential of Klebsiella oxytoca TYL-T1 to remove tylosin from the environment.

Background: We investigated hospitalized carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) and extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) cases with and without COVID-19, as identified through Emerging Infections Program surveillance in 10 sites from 2020 to 2022.
Methods: We defined a CRE case as the first isolation of , complex, , , , or resistant to any carbapenem. We defined an ESBL-E case as the first isolation of , , or resistant to any third-generation cephalosporin and nonresistant to all carbapenems tested.

Unlabelled: The study investigated the resistome, virulome and mobilome of multidrug resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae and Klebsiella oxytoca clinical isolates.
Methods: A total of 46 suspected Klebsiella species (spp.) were collected from blood cultures within the uMgungundlovu District in the KwaZulu-Natal Province.

Competition among bacteria for carbohydrates is pivotal for colonization resistance (CR). However, the impact of Western-style diets on CR remains unclear. Here we show how the competition between Klebsiella oxytoca and Klebsiella pneumoniae is modulated by consuming one of three Western-style diets characterized by high-starch, high-sucrose, or high-fat/high-sucrose content.

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are spherical particles with a number of specific and unique physical (such as surface plasmon resonance, high electrical conductivity and thermal stability) as well as chemical (including antimicrobial activity, catalytic efficiency and the ability to form conjugates with biomolecules) properties. These properties allow AgNPs to exhibit desired interactions with the biological system and make them prospective candidates for use in antibacterial and anticancer activities. AgNPs have a quenching capacity, which produces reactive oxygen species and disrupts cellular processes (such as reducing the function of the mitochondria, damaging the cell membrane, inhibiting DNA replication and altering protein synthesis).
