Actinomycosis Calcaneum- A Rare Case Report [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017 Actinomyces is anaerobic, gram-positive bacilli that superficially resemble fungi and give rise to suppurative and granulomatous infection. The organisms are commensals to human body but under suitable conditions can involve any organ system ...

More than Valley Fever: Pulmonary Actinomycosis and Coccidioidomycosis Co-infection in a Patient
European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2021 Pulmonary coccidioidomycosis and pulmonary actinomycosis are unheard of as co-pathogens. Infection with these organisms on their own can mimic lung cancer, thus presenting a diagnostic challenge. We present the case of a 75-year-old woman presenting with

Evolution of substrate specificity in a retained enzyme driven by gene loss. [PDF]
, 2017 The connection between gene loss and the functional adaptation of retained proteins is still poorly understood. We apply phylogenomics and metabolic modeling to detect bacterial species that are evolving by gene loss, with the finding that ...

Recombination in Actinomyces aureofaciens [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1961 SUMMARY Biochemical mutants of Actinomyces aureofaciens were obtained after treatment with ultraviolet irradiation or ethyleneimine. A specificity of the mutational process in a series of A. aureofaciens strains was observed, revealing itself mainly in formation of arginine-requiring mutants.

Actinomyceslymphadenitis [PDF]
Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings, 2020 Actinomyces is a gram-positive anaerobe that colonizes the human oral cavity. Its pathogenesis involves the disruption of the mucosal membrane, leading to suppuration and subsequent abscess formation, most commonly in the cervicofacial region. The bacteria form masses consisting of aggregates of branching, filamentous bacilli.
