Brucella ceti and Brucella pinnipedialis genome characterization unveils genetic features that highlight their zoonotic potential

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 11, Issue 5, October 2022., 2022
Orsini and colleagues present the whole‐genome characterization of Brucella ceti and Brucella pinnipedialis, two Gram‐negative bacteria that infect marine mammals causing lethal disease. By de novo assembling of raw sequencing data and comparative annotation of all available genome sequences in databases, the authors provide insights on Brucella genus ...

A Phage in Bartonella bacilliformis [PDF]

Microbiology and Immunology, 1992
AbstractBacteriophage‐like particles were found in Bartonella bacilliformis culture. The particles consisted of head (icosahedral), 40 nm in diameter, and tail, 16 nm in length.

Bats and their ectoparasites (Nycteribiidae and Spinturnicidae) carry diverse novel Bartonella genotypes, China

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page e845-e858, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Bartonella species are facultative intracellular bacteria and recognized worldwide as emerging zoonotic pathogens. Bartonella were isolated or identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in bats and their ectoparasites worldwide, whereas the association between them was scarce, especially in Asia. In this study, a retrospective analysis with

Physical map of the Bartonella bacilliformis genome [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1995
The genome of Bartonella bacilliformis was shown to be a single circular DNA molecule of about 1,600 kbp having six NotI, four SfiI, and two CeuI sites. A physical map of the DNA was constructed by contour-clamped homogeneous electric field pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of DNA restriction fragments. rRNA operons, the invasion-associated locus, and a

Treatment of a cat with presumed Bartonella henselae‐associated immune‐mediated hemolytic anemia, fever, and lymphadenitis

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 1106-1112, May/June 2022., 2022
Abstract A 2.5‐year‐old castrated male cat presented with fever and marked generalized lymphadenopathy of 4‐months duration, despite treatment with amoxicillin‐clavulanate/marbofloxacin. Abnormalities were not detected on complete blood count, serum chemistry, and FIV/FeLV test apart from a borderline, non‐regenerative anemia.

Bartonella spp. detection in ticks, Culicoides biting midges and wild cervids from Norway

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 941-951, March 2021., 2021
Abstract Bartonella spp. are fastidious, gram‐negative, aerobic, facultative intracellular bacteria that infect humans, and domestic and wild animals. In Norway, Bartonella spp. have been detected in cervids, mainly within the distribution area of the arthropod vector deer ked (Lipoptena cervi).

Bartonella henselae Detected in Malignant Melanoma, a Preliminary Study

Pathogens, 2021
Bartonella bacilliformis (B. bacilliformis), Bartonella henselae (B. henselae), and Bartonella quintana (B. quintana) are bacteria known to cause verruga peruana or bacillary angiomatosis, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-dependent cutaneous ...

Subtractive genomics approach towards the identification of novel therapeutic targets against human Bartonella bacilliformis

Informatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2020
Bartonella bacilliformis, a causative agent of Bartonellosis or Carrión's disease, has become resistant to antibacterial agents. To suggest effective novel drug targets, a comprehensive in silico subtractive genomic approach was employed in the genome of

Molecular mechanisms of resistance to antibiotics in Bartonella bacilliformis [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2007
Bartonella bacilliformis is the aetiological agent of Carrion's disease. Although ciprofloxacin, rifampicin and erythromycin have been successfully used in the treatment of the disease, failures and relapses have been reported. The objective of our study was to select in vitro mutants resistant to antibiotics in order to determine the frequency of ...
