PgaB orthologues contain a glycoside hydrolase domain that cleaves deacetylated poly-β(1,6)-N-acetylglucosamine and can disrupt bacterial biofilms.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
Poly-β(1,6)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (PNAG) is a major biofilm component of many pathogenic bacteria. The production, modification, and export of PNAG in Escherichia coli and Bordetella species require the protein products encoded by the pgaABCD operon ...

Biogenesis of outer-membrane vesicles in Bordetella species

open access: yes, 2022
The Gram-negative bacterium Bordetella pertussis causes whooping cough, also known as pertussis, which is an infection of the respiratory tract in humans. Pertussis is most severe in newborns. Currently, babies are vaccinated against pertussis, but these vaccines do not protect sufficiently as appears from the increase in pertussis cases over the last ...

Novel Multitarget Real-Time PCR Assay for Rapid Detection of Bordetella Species in Clinical Specimens

open access: yes, 2011
A novel multitarget real-time PCR (RT-PCR) assay for the rapid identification of Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. holmesii was developed using multicopy insertion sequences (ISs) in combination with the pertussis toxin subunit S1 (ptxS1 ...

The Bordetella effector protein BteA induces host cell death by disruption of calcium homeostasis

open access: yesmBio
Bordetella pertussis is the causative agent of whooping cough in humans, a disease that has recently experienced a resurgence. In contrast, Bordetella bronchiseptica infects the respiratory tract of various mammalian species, causing a range of symptoms ...
