Detection of small RNAs in Bordetella pertussis and identification of a novel repeated genetic element [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Background Small bacterial RNAs (sRNAs) have been shown to participate in the regulation of gene expression and have been identified in numerous prokaryotic species. Some of them are involved in the regulation of virulence in pathogenic bacteria. So far,

Emergence of Bordetella holmesii–Associated Pertussis-Like Illness, Northern India, 2019–2023 [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases
We investigated Bordetella holmesii and Bordetella pertussis in 935 suspected pertussis cases in northern India (2019–2023) using PCR and serology. B. holmesii showed increased prevalence in pertussis cases, particularly in older children, highlighting ...

Reduction of endotoxicity in Bordetella bronchiseptica by lipid A engineering: Characterization of lpxL1 and pagP mutants

open access: yesVirulence, 2021
Whole-cell vaccines against Gram-negative bacteria commonly display high reactogenicity caused by the endotoxic activity of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), one of the major components of the bacterial outer membrane. Underacylation of the lipid A moiety of LPS

Rarely Encountered Gram-Negative Rods and Lung Transplant Recipients: A Narrative Review

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
The respiratory tract of lung transplant recipients (LTR) is likely to be colonized with non-fermentative Gram-negative rods. As a consequence of the improvements in molecular sequencing and taxonomy, an increasing number of bacterial species have been ...

Pathogenicity and virulence of Bordetella pertussis and its adaptation to its strictly human host

open access: yesVirulence, 2021
The highly contagious whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis has evolved as a human-restricted pathogen from a progenitor which also gave rise to Bordetella parapertussis and Bordetella bronchiseptica.

Comparative Phosphoproteomics of Classical Bordetellae Elucidates the Potential Role of Serine, Threonine and Tyrosine Phosphorylation in Bordetella Biology and Virulence

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
The Bordetella genus is divided into two groups: classical and non-classical. Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis are known as classical bordetellae, a group of important human pathogens causing whooping cough or ...
