PPT1 and infection: We investigated the role of host factors influencing colonization in an orogastrical murine infection model using a CTX-M-15- and OXA-162-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST15 (MDR-KP) strain, as well as Escherichia coli J53 (EC) and E. coli transconjugants with an IncFII(K) plasmid carrying CTX-M-15 (EC-CTXM), and with an IncL plasmid carrying OXA-162 (EC-OXA) genes.
