ATP-binding cassette systems in Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei [PDF]
Abstract Background ATP binding cassette (ABC) systems are responsible for the import and export of a wide variety of molecules across cell membranes and comprise one of largest protein superfamilies found in prokarya, eukarya and archea. ABC systems play important roles in bacterial lifestyle, virulence and survival.

Comparative Analysis of Quorum Sensing-Dependent Transcriptomic Responses in Phytopathogenic Burkholderia spp. [PDF]
Rice is a crucial global crop of nutritional and economic importance. Burkholderia glumae, Burkholderia gladioli, and Burkholderia plantarii are the major phytopathogens that cause diseases in rice within the genus Burkholderia.

Phylogenomic Study of Burkholderia glathei-like Organisms, Proposal of 13 Novel Burkholderia Species and Emended Descriptions of Burkholderia sordidicola, Burkholderia zhejiangensis, and Burkholderia grimmiae [PDF]
Partial gyrB gene sequence analysis of 17 isolates from human and environmental sources revealed 13 clusters of strains and identified them as Burkholderia glathei clade (BGC) bacteria. The taxonomic status of these clusters was examined by whole-genome sequence analysis, determination of the G+C content, whole-cell fatty acid analysis and biochemical ...

Burkholderia latens sp. nov., Burkholderia diffusa sp. nov., Burkholderia arboris sp. nov., Burkholderia seminalis sp. nov. and Burkholderia metallica sp. nov., novel species within the Burkholderia cepacia complex [PDF]
The taxonomic position of five recA gene clusters of Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) isolates was determined using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The levels of 16S rRNA and recA gene sequence similarity, multilocus sequence typing (MLST) data and the intermediate DNA-DNA binding values demonstrated that these five clusters represented five novel ...

Community acquired Burkholderia cepacia sepsis in a patient with megaloblastic anemia: a case report and review of literature [PDF]
Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) is known to cause respiratory tract infections among patients with cystic fibrosis. Burkholderia infection is also seen in patients admitted in ICUs who are immunocompromised and results in lower respiratory tract ...

We developed a rapid oligonucleotide microarray assay based on genetic markers for the accurate identification and differentiation of Burkholderia (B.) mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei, the agents of glanders and melioidosis, respectively. These two agents were clearly identified using at least 4 independent genetic markers including 16S rRNA gene,

Flagellar Glycosylation in Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia thailandensis [PDF]
Glycosylation of proteins is known to impart novel physical properties and biological roles to proteins from both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. In this study, gel-based glycoproteomics were used to identify glycoproteins of the potential biothreat agent Burkholderia pseudomallei and the closely related but nonpathogenic B. thailandensis.

Autotransporters and Their Role in the Virulence of Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei [PDF]
Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei are closely related Gram-negative bacteria responsible for the infectious diseases melioidosis and glanders, respectively. Autotransporters (ATs) comprise a large and diverse family of secreted and outer membrane proteins that includes virulence-associated invasins, adhesins, proteases, and actin ...
