Antigen-specific acquired immunity in human brucellosis: implications for diagnosis, prognosis, and vaccine development. [PDF]
, 2012 Brucella spp., are Gram negative bacteria that cause disease by growing within monocyte/macrophage lineage cells. Clinical manifestations of brucellosis are immune mediated, not due to bacterial virulence factors.

Antimicrobial susceptibility of Brucella melitensis in Kazakhstan [PDF]
Antimicrobial Resistance & Infection Control, 2017 Kazakhstan belongs to countries with a high level of brucellosis among humans and farm animals. Although antibiotic therapy is the main way to treat acute brucellosis in humans there is still little information on a circulation of the antibiotic-resistant Brucella strains in the Central Eurasia.

Recovery of a medieval Brucella melitensis genome using shotgun metagenomics [PDF]
, 2014 Shotgun metagenomics provides a powerful assumption-free approach to the recovery of pathogen genomes from contemporary and historical material. We sequenced the metagenome of a calcified nodule from the skeleton of a 14th-century middle-aged male ...

The Glutaminase-dependent system confers extreme acid resistance to new species and atypical strains of Brucella [PDF]
, 2017 Neutralophilic bacteria have developed specific mechanisms to cope with the acid stress encountered in environments such as soil, fermented foods, and host compartments. In Escherichia coli, the glutamate decarboxylase (Gad)-dependent system is extremely
