Scleral buckle infection with Alcaligenes xylosoxidans

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2014
We describe a rare case of extraocular inflammation secondary to scleral buckle infection with Alcaligenes xylosoxidans. A 60-year-old female with a history of retinal detachment repair with open-book technique of scleral buckling presented with purulent

Alcaligenes xylosoxidans Bloodstream Infections in Outpatient Oncology Office [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
In 2002, we investigated a cluster of patients with Alcaligenes xylosoxidans bloodstream infections by conducting a matched case–control study and a prospective study. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was performed on blood culture isolates, and 1

Post-ERCP bacteremia caused by Alcaligenes xylosoxidans in a patient with pancreas cancer [PDF]

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2006
Alcaligenes xylosoxidans is an aerobic, motile, oxidase and catalase positive, nonfermentative Gram negative bacillus. This bacterium has been isolated from intestine of humans and from various hospital or environmental water sources.

Postoperative meningitis due to a rare pathogen; Alcaligenes xylosoxidans

Open Medicine (Poland), 2009
Abstract Alcaligenes xylosoxidans is non-fermenting gram-negative bacilli found in soil and water. It is an aerobic bacterium in the genus Achromobacter. This bacterium is motile, oxidase positive, and catalase positive, which is isolated uncommonly from clinical specimens.

The crystal structure of D-threonine aldolase from Alcaligenes xylosoxidans provides insight into a metal ion assisted PLP-dependent mechanism. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Threonine aldolases catalyze the pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) dependent cleavage of threonine into glycine and acetaldehyde and play a major role in the degradation of this amino acid.

Revisiting D-Acylases for D-Amino Acid Production. [PDF]

Microb Biotechnol
Enzymatic D‐acylase/N‐succinyl‐amino acid racemase tandem for the production of optically pure D‐amino acids and structural basis for D‐acylase substrate recognition. ABSTRACT N‐Acyl‐D‐amino acid deacylases (EC 3.5.1.81, also known as D‐acylases) have been studied for decades for their utility in the kinetic resolution of N‐acetyl‐D,L‐amino acids (NAAs)

A case of community-acquired spondylodiscitis caused by Achromobacter xylosoxidans [PDF]

IDCases
Achromobacter xylosoxidans is a Gram-negative, aerobic, non-fermenting bacillus mainly responsible for nosocomial infections. We report the first case of community-acquired spondylodiscitis caused by Achromobacter xylosoxidans in a 61-year-old woman ...

Protein Quakes in Redox Metalloenzymes: Clues to Molecular Enzyme Conductivity Triggered by Binding of Small Substrate Molecules. [PDF]

ChemistryOpen
Metalloenzyme conformational changes accompany electrocatalytic action. Two‐centre copper nitrite reductases (CuNIRs) are examples, mostly without non‐turnover voltammetry on Au(111)‐surfaces, while nitrite substrate triggers electrocatalysis, CuNIR conductivity, and enzyme structural expansion. We offer a quantum chemical rationale.

The structure of the complex between the arsenite oxidase from Pseudorhizobium banfieldiae sp. strain NT‐26 and its native electron acceptor cytochrome c552

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 79, Issue 4, Page 345-352, April 2023., 2023
The crystal structure of the electron transfer complex between arsenite oxidase (AioAB) from Pseudorhizobium banfieldiae sp. strain NT‐26 and its native electron acceptor cytochrome c552 (cytc552) is presented. Cytc552 docks within a cleft at the interface of the AioA and AioB subunits, which allows a close association between redox cofactors.; this ...
