Burkholderia pseudomallei and melioidosis
Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of melioidosis, is found in soil and water of tropical and subtropical regions globally. Modelled estimates of the global burden predict that melioidosis remains vastly under-reported, and a call has been made for it to be recognized as a neglected tropical disease by the World Health Organization.

Substrate specificity of Burkholderia pseudomallei multidrug transporters is influenced by the hydrophilic patch in the substrate-binding pocket. [PDF]
Multidrug transporters BpeB and BpeF from the Gram‐negative pathogen Burkholderia pseudomallei have a hydrophilic patch in their substrate‐binding pocket. Drug susceptibility tests and growth curve analyses using an Escherichia coli recombinant expression system revealed that the hydrophilic patches of BpeB and BpeF are involved in the substrate ...

Genomic diversity and clade clustering of Burkholderia pseudomallei and B. thailandensis prophages with soil-derived phages [PDF]
Summary: Most studies on bacteriophages (phages) of the Gram-negative bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei rely on in silico predictions and thus underestimate the true diversity of phages.

Burkholderia pseudomallei: animal models of infection.
A range of animal models of Burkholderia pseudomallei infection have been reported, and the host species differ widely both in their susceptibility to infection and in the pathogenesis of disease.

T6SS-5 and the cGAS-STING pathway in Burkholderia pseudomallei infection and immunity
Burkholderia pseudomallei is a causative agent of melioidosis that can infect humans and animals in endemic countries, specifically in Southeast Asia and tropical Australia. A fundamental component for the pathogenesis of Burkholderia pseudomallei is the

Misidentification of Burkholderia pseudomallei, China [PDF]
We report a case of melioidosis in China and offer a comparison of 5 commercial detection systems for Burkholderia pseudomallei. The organism was misidentified by the VITEK 2 Compact, Phoenix, VITEK mass spectrometry, and API 20NE systems but was eventually identified by the Bruker Biotyper system and 16S rRNA sequencing.

The Burkholderia pseudomallei intracellular ‘TRANSITome’ [PDF]
AbstractProkaryotic cell transcriptomics has been limited to mixed or sub-population dynamics and individual cells within heterogeneous populations, which has hampered further understanding of spatiotemporal and stage-specific processes of prokaryotic cells within complex environments.
