Nonmycetomic Actinomadura madurae infection in a patient with AIDS [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1992 Actinomadura madurae is an aerobic actinomycete which is best known worldwide as the cause of actinomycotic mycetomas. It has not previously been reported to have caused invasive pulmonary or disseminated infection in humans. We describe an AIDS patient with opportunistic A. madurae-induced pneumonia and bacteremia. The isolate from the patient's blood

Molecular Diagnosis of Actinomadura madurae Infection by 16S rRNA Deep Sequencing [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2013 ABSTRACT Next-generation DNA sequencing can be used to catalog individual organisms within complex, polymicrobial specimens. Here, we utilized deep sequencing of 16S rRNA to implicate Actinomadura madurae as the cause of mycetoma in a diabetic patient when culture and conventional molecular methods were ...

Draft Genome Sequence of Actinomadura madurae LIID-AJ290, Isolated from a Human Mycetoma Case [PDF]
Genome Announcements, 2014 ABSTRACT Here we present the draft genome sequence of a member of the Thermomonosporaceae , Actinomadura madurae LIID-AJ290, isolated from a human case of mycetoma. The assembly contains 10,308,866 bp. This is to our knowledge the first reported genome of a human-pathogenic
