Type VI secretion: a beginner's guide [PDF]

, 2008
Type VI secretion is a newly described mechanism for protein transport across the cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria. Components that have been partially characterised include an IcmF homologue, the ATPase ClpV, a regulatory FHA domain protein and ...

Characterization of Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei-like strains

Epidemiology and Infection, 1997
Previous reports in the literature suggest that Burkholderia pseudomallei strains can be differentiated on the basis of animal virulence. Twenty environmentally and clinically derived isolates of Burkholderia pseudomallei were examined for the production of exoenzymes, morphological and biochemical phenotypes and virulence for Syrian ...

An unusual case of primary melioidotic prostatic abscess complicated by perianal abscess

IDCases, 2018
Burkholderia pseudomallei is recognized to cause severe and fatal infections. Most of the infections caused by this facultative intracellular gram-negative bacterium are pneumonia, soft tissue, genito-urinary and central nervous system infection.

Development of a prototype Lateral Flow Immunoassay (LFI) for the rapid diagnosis of melioidosis [PDF]

, 2014
Burkholderia pseudomallei is a soil-dwelling bacterium and the causative agent of melioidosis. Isolation of B. pseudomallei from clinical samples is the “gold standard” for the diagnosis of melioidosis; results can take 3–7 days to ...

Burkholderia pseudomallei

Trends in Microbiology
Burkholderia pseudomallei is a Gram negative, facultative intracellular bacterium that resides in the rhizosphere of tropical soils. B. pseudomallei causes melioidosis, which is transmitted by cutaneous entry, ingestion, or inhalation of contaminated soil or water. Infection with B.

Efflux Pump-mediated Drug Resistance in Burkholderia

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Several members of the genus Burkholderia are prominent pathogens. Infections caused by these bacteria are difficult to treat because of significant antibiotic resistance.

Diverse Burkholderia Species Isolated from Soils in the Southern United States with No Evidence of B. pseudomallei. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The global distribution of the soil-dwelling bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei, causative agent of melioidosis, is poorly understood. We used established culturing methods developed for B.

Competition between Burkholderia pseudomallei and B. thailandensis. [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Burkholderia pseudomallei is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes melioidosis, an often fatal disease in tropical countries. Burkholderia thailandensis is a non-virulent but closely related species.

Molecular Investigations of PenA-mediated β-lactam Resistance in Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]

, 2011
Burkholderia pseudomallei is the etiological agent of melioidosis. Because of the bacterium’s intrinsic resistance and propensity to establish latent infections, melioidosis therapy is complicated and prolonged. Newer generation b-lactams, specifically

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 ...
