Flagellar Glycosylation in Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia thailandensis [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2011
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.

Burkholderia pseudomallei Laboratory Exposure, Arizona, USA

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
We describe an incidental Burkholderia pseudomallei laboratory exposure in Arizona, USA. Because melioidosis cases are increasing in the United States and B.

Polysaccharides and virulence of Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2007
Burkholderia pseudomallei is the causative agent of melioidosis, an infectious disease of humans and animals. Gene clusters which encode capsular polysaccharide (type I O-PS) and LPS (type II O-PS), both of which play roles in virulence, have previously been identified.

Accurate and rapid identification of the Burkholderia pseudomallei near-neighbour, Burkholderia ubonensis, using real-time PCR. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Burkholderia ubonensis is an environmental bacterium belonging to the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc), a group of genetically related organisms that are associated with opportunistic but generally nonfatal infections in healthy individuals.

Intracellular survival of Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1996
Burkholderia pseudomallei is the causative agent of melioidosis, a disease being increasingly recognized as an important cause of morbidity and mortality in many regions of the world. Several features of melioidosis suggest that B. pseudomallei is a facultative intracellular pathogen. This study was designed to assess the ability of B.

Pathogenicity and virulence ofBurkholderia pseudomallei

Virulence, 2022
The soil saprophyte, Burkholderia pseudomallei, is the causative agent of melioidosis, a disease endemic in South East Asia and northern Australia. Exposure to B. pseudomallei by either inhalation or inoculation can lead to severe disease. B. pseudomallei rapidly shifts from an environmental organism to an aggressive intracellular pathogen capable of ...

Burkholderia pseudomallei Endophthalmitis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2007
ABSTRACT Melioidosis is an infectious disease caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei , a gram-negative bacillus. We report a case of endogenous endophthalmitis caused by B. pseudomallei that was treated with systemic and intravitreal ceftazidime.

Recombinant Salmonella Expressing Burkholderia mallei LPS O Antigen Provides Protection in a Murine Model of Melioidosis and Glanders. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei are the etiologic agents of melioidosis and glanders, respectively. These bacteria are highly infectious via the respiratory route and can cause severe and often fatal diseases in humans and animals. Both
