Isolation and characterization of bacteriophage FC3-10 from Klebsiella spp.

S Camprubí1, S Merino, V J Benedí, J M Tomás.   

Abstract

FC3-10 is a Klebsiella spp. specific bacteriophage isolated on a rough mutant (strain KT707, chemotype Rd) of K. pneumoniae C3. The bacteriophage receptor for this phage was shown to be the low-molecular mass lipopolysaccharide (LPS) fraction (LPS-core oligosaccharides), specifically the heptose content of the LPS inner-core. This is the first phage isolated on Klebsiella, the receptor for which is the LPS-core. This phage was unable to plate on Salmonella typhimurium LPS mutants with chemotypes Rd2 or Re showing incomplete or no heptose content on their LPS-core, respectively. Spontaneous phage-resistant mutants from different Klebsiella strains were deep-rough LPS mutants or encapsulated revertants from unencapsulated mutant strains.
