Analysis of the role of the LH92_11085 gene of a biofilm hyper-producing Acinetobacter baumannii strain on biofilm formation and attachment to eukaryotic cells
Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial pathogen that has a considerable ability to survive in the hospital environment partly due to its capacity to form biofilms. The first step in the process of establishing an infection ... -
Characterisation of the mgo operon in Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae UMAF0158 that is required for mangotoxin production
Background: Mangotoxin is an antimetabolite toxin that is produced by strains of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae; mangotoxin-producing strains are primarily isolated from mango tissues with symptoms of bacterial ... -
Deletion of the GI-2 integrase and the wbkA flanking transposase improves the stability of Brucella melitensis Rev 1 vaccine
Brucella melitensis Rev 1 is the best vaccine available for the prophylaxis of small ruminant brucellosis and, indirectly, for reducing human brucellosis. However, Rev 1 shows anomalously high rates of spontaneous dissociation ... -
Detection by multiplex PCR and characterization of nontoxigenic strains of Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola from different places in Spain. Short communication
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2006) Artículo / ArtikuluaEl control eficiente de la grasa de la judía causada por Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola se basa principalmente en la utilización de semilla libre del patógeno. La detección del patógeno en semilla se efectúa mediante ... -
Genomics of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis from periprosthetic joint infections and correlation to clinical outcome
The approach of sequencing or genotyping to characterize the pathogenic potential of staphylococci from orthopedic device-related infection (ODRI) has been applied in recent studies. These studies described the genomic ... -
The influence of the accessory genome on bacterial pathogen evolution
Bacterial pathogens exhibit significant variation in their genomic content of virulence factors. This reflects the abundance of strategies pathogens evolved to infect host organisms by suppressing host immunity. Molecular ... -
Insecticidal traits of variants in a genotypically diverse natural isolate of anticarsia gemmatalis multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AgMNPV)
Outbreaks of Anticarsia gemmatalis (Hübner, 1818) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), a major pest of soybean, can be controlled below economic thresholds with methods that do not involve the application of synthetic insecticides. ... -
The lipopolysaccharide core of Brucella abortus acts as a shield against innate immunity recognition
Innate immunity recognizes bacterial molecules bearing pathogen-associated molecular patterns to launch inflammatory responses leading to the activation of adaptive immunity. However, the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of the ... -
The mangotoxin biosynthetic operon (mbo) is specifically distributed within Pseudomonas syringae genomospecies 1 and was acquired only once during evolution
Mangotoxin production was first described in Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae strains. A phenotypic characterization of 94 P. syringae strains was carried out to determine the genetic evolution of the mangotoxin biosynthetic ... -
Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi: some like it knot
Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi is the causal agent of olive (Olea europaea) knot disease and an unorthodox member of the P. syringae complex, causing aerial tumours instead of the foliar necroses and cankers ... -
Role of the Omp25/Omp31 family in outer membrane properties and virulence of Brucella ovis
The genes coding for the five outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of the Omp25/Omp31 family expected to be located in the outer membrane (OM) of rough virulent Brucella ovis PA were inactivated to evaluate their role in virulence ... -
Two homologues of the global regulator Csr/Rsm redundantly control phaseolotoxin biosynthesis and virulence in the plant pathogen Pseudomonas amygdali pv. phaseolicola 1448A
The widely conserved Csr/Rsm (carbon storage regulator/repressor of stationary-phase metabolites) post-transcriptional regulatory system controls diverse phenotypes involved in bacterial pathogenicity and virulence. Here ... -
Wavelet-based detection of transcriptional activity on a novel Staphylococcus aureus tiling microarray
Background: High-density oligonucleotide microarray is an appropriate technology for genomic analysis, and is particulary useful in the generation of transcriptional maps, ChIP-on-chip studies and re-sequencing of the ...
