This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.
Kleborate was primarily developed to screen genome assemblies of Klebsiella pneumoniae and the Klebsiella pneumoniae species complex (KpSC) for:
- Species (e.g. K. pneumoniae, K. quasipneumoniae, K. variicola, etc.)
- K. pneumoniae species complex MLST
- ICEKp associated virulence loci: yersiniabactin (ybt), colibactin (clb), salmochelin (iro), hypermucoidy (rmp)
- Virulence plasmid associated loci: salmochelin (iro), aerobactin (iuc), hypermucoidy (rmp, rmpA2)
- Antimicrobial resistance determinants: acquired genes, SNPs, gene truncations and intrinsic β-lactamases
- K (capsule) and O antigen (LPS) serotype prediction, via wzi alleles and Kaptive
Kleborate v3 includes a rewrite of the code to (i) replace the use of BLAST with minimap2 (faster and less buggy); and (ii) introduce a modular structure making it easy to add new typing modules, including for other species. Currently, functionality for other species is limited to MLST for Klebsiella oxytoca species complex and Escherichia coli but more is in development.
A list of changes from v2 is available in the documentation.
