A VirB4 ATPase of the mobile accessory genome orchestrates core genome-encoded features of physiology, metabolism, and virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa TBCF10839 [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 Pseudomonas aeruginosa TBCF10839 is a highly virulent strain that can persist and replicate in human neutrophils. Screening of a signature-tagged mutagenesis (STM) TBCF10839 transposon library in phagocytosis tests identified a mutant that carried the ...

Accessory genome of the multi-drug resistant ocular isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA34. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 Bacteria can acquire an accessory genome through the horizontal transfer of genetic elements from non-parental lineages. This leads to rapid genetic evolution allowing traits such as antibiotic resistance and virulence to spread through bacterial ...

Colonization, Infection, and the Accessory Genome of Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018 Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative pathogen that has a large accessory genome of plasmids and chromosomal gene loci. This accessory genome divides K. pneumoniae strains into opportunistic, hypervirulent, and multidrug-resistant groups and separates

Pan-genome sequence analysis using Panseq: an online tool for the rapid analysis of core and accessory genomic regions [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2010 Background The pan-genome of a bacterial species consists of a core and an accessory gene pool. The accessory genome is thought to be an important source of genetic variability in bacterial populations and is gained through lateral gene transfer ...
