Intestinal mucus acts as a nutrient source and signal for<i> Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>

Figure 2. K. pneumoniae possesses multiple enzymes necessary for mucus-associated sugar metabolism. (A) Schematic of the necessary genes for the down-stream processing of mucus-associated sugars; (B) Genome analysis of the percent of K. pneumoniae genomes in the IMG database for the presence sugar processing associated genes; (C) Genome analysis of 10 K. pneumoniae genomes in the IMG database for the presence of sugar-processing associated genes. Data represents the presence or absence of the target gene. Graphs generated with Graphpad Prism. GlcNAc: N-acetyl-glucosamine; Neu5Ac: N-acetyl-neuraminic acid; ATCC: American Type Culture Collection; NCTC: National Collection of Type Cultures; K. pneumoniae: Klebsiella pneumoniae; IMG: Integrated Microbial Genomes.
