A system for transposon mutagenesis of Bartonella bacilliformis

Journal of Microbiological Methods, 2022
Bartonella bacilliformis is the etiologic agent of Carrión's disease in South America. Lack of a system for random mutagenesis has significantly hampered research on the pathogen's molecular biology. Here, we describe a transposon (Tn)-based mutagenesis strategy for B. bacilliformis using pSAM_Rl; a Tn-mariner delivery vector originally constructed for

Bartonella bacilliformis infection

2010
Bartonellosis (Carrión´s disease, verruga Peruana, Oroya fever, Guaitará fever) is caused by the Gram-negative bacillus Bartonella bacilliformis. It is endemic in the western Andes and inter-Andean valleys of Peru, and is still occasionally reported in Ecuador, with infection resulting from the bite of various female sandflies....

Interactions between Live Bartonella bacilliformis and Endothelial Cells

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1992
Bartonella bacilliformis, a gram-negative, flagellated, motile bacterium, is the etiologic agent of verruca peruana. It is found within the verruca, where it can form large cytoplasmic (Rocha-Lima) inclusions in endothelial cells. Previously, an activity has been described in homogenates of B.

Bartonellas excluding B. bacilliformis

2020
Abstract Bartonellae are Gram-negative bacilli or coccobacilli belonging to the α-2 subgroup of Proteobacteria. A given Bartonella species usually persists within a given mammalian host, with transmission between hosts by haematophagous arthropods. A single species, such as B. henselae or B.

Bb65, a Major Immunoreactive Protein of Bartonella Bacilliformis

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1990
A 65 kDa protein (Bb65) has been identified as one of the major specific antigens of Bartonella bacilliformis, the causative agent of bartonellosis which is a bacterial infectious disease of inhabitants of the Andes. The gene encoding this antigen (7B2) was isolated from an expression library made directly from randomly generated fragments of B ...

Analysis and Preparation of Bartonella Bacilliformis Antigens

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1988
Twenty-four antigens of Bartonella bacilliformis, a bacterium which causes bartonellosis in residents of high altitude valleys of the Andes, were identified by immunoblot and immunoprecipitation using rabbit anti-Bartonella sera as well as sera of patients.
