Classification of Parabacteroides distasonis and other Bacteroidetes using O- antigen virulence gene: RfbA-Typing and hypothesis for pathogenic vs. probiotic strain differentiation

Gut Microbes, 2022
Parabacteroides distasonis (Pdis) is the type species for the new Parabacteroides genus, and a gut commensal of the Bacteroidetes phylum. Emerging reports (primarily based on reference strain/ATCC-8503) concerningly propose that long-known opportunistic ...

Mobilization of Bacteroides plasmids by Bacteroides conjugal elements [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1988
A 4.2-kilobase cryptic Bacteroides plasmid, pB8-51, is found in several colonic Bacteroides species. To determine whether pB8-51 is mobilized by any of the known Bacteroides conjugal elements, we constructed an Escherichia coli-Bacteroides shuttle vector, pVAL-1, which contains pB8-51.

Cytotoxic Activity of Bacteroides Gingivalis and Bacteroides Asaccharolyticus [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1982
Culture filtrates of all eight strains of Bacteroides gingivalis and all five strains of B. asaccharolyticus were toxic for Vero cells. Cytotoxicity was in general greater with material from cultures of B. gingivalis than from B. asaccharolyticus but none of the culture filtrates from eight strains of B.
