Deep phosphoproteomics of Klebsiella pneumoniae reveals HipA-mediated tolerance to ciprofloxacin.
Article in PLoS pathogens, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Klebsiella pneumoniae belongs to the group of bacterial pathogens causing the majority of antibiotic-resistant nosocomial infections worldwide; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying post-translational regulation of its physiology are poorly understood. Here we perform a comprehensive analysis of Klebsiella phosphoproteome, focusing on HipA, a Ser/Thr kinase involved in antibiotic tolerance in Escherichia coli. We show that overproduced K. pneumoniae HipA (HipAkp) is toxic to both E. coli and K. pneumoniae and its toxicity can be rescued by overproduction of the antitoxin HipBkp. Importantly, HipAkp overproduction leads to increased tolerance against ciprofloxacin, a commonly used antibiotic in the treatment of K. pneumoniae infections. Proteome and phosphoproteome analyses in the absence and presence of ciprofloxacin confirm that HipAkp has Ser/Thr kinase activity, auto-phosphorylates at S150, and shares multiple substrates with HipAec, thereby providing a valuable resource to clarify the molecular basis of tolerance and the role of Ser/Thr phosphorylation in this human pathogen.
