Natural Burkholderia mallei Infection in Dromedary, Bahrain

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
We confirm a natural infection of dromedaries with glanders. Multilocus variable number tandem repeat analysis of a Burkholderia mallei strain isolated from a diseased dromedary in Bahrain revealed close genetic proximity to strain Dubai 7, which caused an outbreak of glanders in horses in the United Arab Emirates in 2004.

Microevolution of Burkholderia pseudomallei during an Acute Infection [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2014
ABSTRACT We used whole-genome sequencing to evaluate 69 independent colonies of Burkholderia pseudomallei isolated from seven body sites of a patient with acute disseminated melioidosis.

A reverse-phase protein microarray-based screen identifies host signaling dynamics upon Burkholderia spp. infection

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Burkholderia is a diverse genus of Gram-negative bacteria that cause high mortality rate in humans and cattle. The lack of effective therapeutic treatments poses serious public health threats. Insights toward host-Burkholderia spp.

De novo mutation of CYBB gene in a boy presenting as intra-abdominal infection of Burkholderia contaminans: a case report

Italian Journal of Pediatrics, 2022
Background Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an inborn error of immunity. It is characterized by recurrent bacterial or fungal infections, including infections by Burkholderia species.

Is the endophyte‐based plant protection against aphids mediated by changes in the insect microbiome?

Insect Science, EarlyView.
We showed that the fungal endophyte Epichloë strain AR37 increased the plant resistance against aphids via the production of indole diterpene alkaloids. The reduction in aphid performance was not associated with changes in abundance/composition/diversity of the insect's bacterial microbiota, but additional endophyte effects on this microbiota cannot be

Evaluating New Compounds to Treat Burkholderia pseudomallei Infections [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Burkholderia pseudomallei is the causative agent of melioidosis, a disease that requires long-term treatment regimens with no assurance of bacterial clearance. Clinical isolates are intrinsically resistant to most antibiotics and in recent years, isolates have been collected that display resistance to frontline drugs.

Dynamics of the CD9 interactome during bacterial infection of epithelial cells by proximity labelling proteomics

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
We describe the CD9 interactome in epithelial cells for the first time. The interactome is diverse and dynamic and changes dependent on infection with specific bacteria. We validate these data by showing functional interaction between CD9 with CD44 or CD147. We therefore demonstrate that CD9 is a universal organiser of bacterial adhesion platforms able

Experimental Phage Therapy for Burkholderia pseudomallei Infection

PLOS ONE, 2016
Burkholderia pseudomallei es un patógeno bacteriano gramnegativo intracelular intrínsecamente resistente a una variedad de antibióticos. Los fagos se han desarrollado para su uso como terapia de tratamiento alternativa, particularmente para infecciones bacterianas que no responden a los antibióticos convencionales.

Protective antigens against glanders identified by expression library immunization

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011
Burkholderia are highly evolved Gram-negative bacteria that primarily infect solipeds but are transmitted to humans by ingestion and cutaneous or aerosol exposures.

Structural and functional characterization of the newly identified Photorhabdus laumondii tumor necrosis factor‐like lectin

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
We characterize the PLTL lectin from Photorhabdus laumondii, which adopts a unique TNF‐like fold. Binding assays reveal a preference for branched histo‐blood group oligosaccharides. Protein crystallography uncovers a novel hexameric assembly and identifies key residues involved in carbohydrate recognition.
