Burkholderia cenocepacia and Burkholderia multivorans: influence on survival in cystic fibrosis [PDF]
Burkholderia cepacia infection has been associated with a poor prognosis for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). It is now recognised that organisms classified as B cepacia comprise a number of distinct genomic species each known as a genomovar of the B cepacia complex (BCC).

New Auranofin Analogs with Antibacterial Properties against Burkholderia Clinical Isolates
Bacteria of the genus Burkholderia include pathogenic Burkholderia mallei, Burkholderia pseudomallei and the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc). These Gram-negative pathogens have intrinsic drug resistance, which makes treatment of infections difficult ...

Complete Genome Sequence of Burkholderia cenocepacia Phage Magia
Burkholderia cenocepacia is a Gram-negative bacterium that is implicated in respiratory infections. The 44,942-bp genome of Magia, a phage infecting B. cenocepacia , does not appear to have strong overall similarity to other known phages.

Burkholderia cenocepacia utilizes ferritin as an iron source [PDF]
Burkholderia cenocepaciais a member of theBurkholderia cepaciacomplex, a group of genetically similar species that inhabit a number of environmental niches, including the lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). To colonize the lung, this bacterium requires a source of iron to satisfy its nutritional requirements for this important metal.

A Broad-Host-Range Tailocin from Burkholderia cenocepacia [PDF]
ABSTRACT The Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) consists of 20 closely related Gram-negative bacterial species that are significant pathogens for persons with cystic fibrosis (CF). Some Bcc strains are highly transmissible and resistant to multiple antibiotics, making infection difficult to treat.
