    ATCC mouse virulent strain atcc 14028
    The opvAB operon in the genus Salmonella . (a) Delimitation of the opvAB ‐containing DNA fragment acquired by horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Analysis of GC content of opvAB and neighbouring regions. The sequence of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium <t>ATCC</t> <t>14028</t> was analysed using SnapGene software. Diagram of GC content of the sequence located between opvA and yeiW genes. GC content suggests the boundary of the operon is located 220 nucleotides upstream of the opvA gene. The promoter‐proximal boundary of the HGT fragment is located 220 nucleotides upstream of opvA ATG. The diagram depicts the ribosome binding site, RBS (green), the −35 and −10 promoter modules (blue), the four GATCs (red) found in the upstream activating sequence (UAS) and the four OxyR binding sites, OBS A OBS B OBS C and OBS D (purple). (b) Assortment of the 992‐nucleotide sequence containing the opvAB operon in 5530 Salmonella genomes available in the NCBI database, classified by species and subspecies. Number of opvAB positive genomes among the sequences available at the NCBI database. A total of 824 genomes were annotated as S. enterica without subspecies‐level classification; among them, 344 contained the opvAB operon sequence. (c) Inter‐subspecies mutational landscape of the opvAB key regulatory elements across Salmonella enterica genomes classified by subspecies. Analysis includes mutations in the −35 and −10 promoter boxes, four GATC sites and four OxyR binding sites. Among the analysed genomes, 1710 correspond to subsp. enterica , 14 to subsp. arizonae , 20 to subsp. diarizonae and 18 to subsp. salamae . The reference sequence from strain ATCC 14028 is displayed below the heatmap. Each row represents a genome, and each column corresponds to a nucleotide position. OBS motifs are annotated following established consensus sequences, while invariant positions are shown in uppercase, degenerate positions (i.e., variable nucleotides) are shown in lowercase (Storz et al. ; Toledano et al. ). Nucleotide changes are represented by colours as follows: Substitutions (blue), insertions (green), deletions (red) and conserved positions (white).

The serum killing assays were performed by incubating three ST627-KL8 isolates, K. pneumoniae ATCC 43816 and K. pneumoniae ATCC 700603, with human serum for 1, 2, or 3 h at 37°C. Data are presented as mean ± SD derived from three separate experiments. One-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s test was used to analyze data, **** p < 0.0001. For panel (C) , **** p < 0.0001 and *** p < 0.001 indicated ST627-KL8 versus K. pneumoniae ATCC 43816, #### p < 0.0001 and ### p < 0.001 for ST627-KL8 versus K. pneumoniae ATCC 700603.

    Article Snippet: In the Galleria mellonella model, ST627-KL8 exhibited intermediate virulence (66.7%–76.7% survival), between the hypervirulent K. pneumoniae ATCC 43816 strain (30.0%) and the low-virulence K. pneumoniae ATCC 700603 strain (96.7%).

    Virulence assessment of three ST627-KL8 CRKP isolates in the G. mellonella infection model. Larvae were injected with PBS (negative control), reference strains K. pneumoniae ATCC 700603 (low-virulence control), K. pneumoniae ATCC 43816 (hypervirulent control), and three ST627-KL8 CRKP isolates (ZJG29565, ZJG30140, ZJG30146) separately. Survival was monitored over time ( n = 30 larvae per group). Survival curves were generated using the Kaplan–Meier method, and statistical significance between groups was determined by the Log-rank test. Data are representative of three independent experiments.

    Virulence assessment of the 46 CR-hvKP clinical isolates using the Galleria mellonella infection model. Survival curves of the larvae infected with CR-hvKP strains are shown in comparison with the high-virulence control strain NTUH-K2044, low-virulence control strain ATCC 700603, and PBS control. Statistical significance was determined by the log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test.

    Article Snippet: In contrast, the high-virulence control strain NTUH-K2044 showed a slightly lower LDH release (1.33 ± 0.05 μmol/L), while the low-virulence strain ATCC 700603 exhibited markedly reduced cytotoxicity (0.35 ± 0.03 μmol/L) with a significant difference compared to all other groups ( P < 0.0001).
