Mechanisms of Disease: Host-Pathogen Interactions between Burkholderia Species and Lung Epithelial Cells [PDF]
Members of the Burkholderia species can cause a range of severe, often fatal, respiratory diseases. A variety of in vitro models of infection have been developed in an attempt to elucidate the mechanism by which Burkholderia spp.

Genetic and phenotypic diversity in Burkholderia: contributions by prophage and phage-like elements [PDF]
Background Burkholderia species exhibit enormous phenotypic diversity, ranging from the nonpathogenic, soil- and water-inhabiting Burkholderia thailandensis to the virulent, host-adapted mammalian pathogen B. mallei.

Mangrove microniches determine the structural and functional diversity of enriched petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading consortia [PDF]
In this study, the combination of culture enrichments and molecular tools was used to identify bacterial guilds, plasmids and functional genes potentially important in the process of petroleum hydrocarbon (PH) decontamination in mangrove microniches ...

Molecular phylogeny of Burkholderia pseudomallei
In terms of population structure, the species Burkholderia pseudomallei contains both clonal and non-clonal elements. By indexing variation in rRNA loci using the restriction endonuclease BamHI, we found that two ribotypes (types 1 and 3) are predominant in nature. Ribotype 3 is prevalent in Asian countries while ribotype 1 is more widespread.

Inactivation of the Burkholderia Toxin Malleicyprol by Enzymatic Cyclopropanol Ring Opening
Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei are dangerous pathogens that cause severe diseases with high mortality rates. Their virulence relies in part on malleicyprols, potent toxins containing a highly reactive cyclopropanol group. In this study, we identify BurK, a heme‐dependent oxidoreductase that neutralizes malleicyprols by enzymatically ...

BIOFILMS OF PATHOGENIC BURKHOLDERIA AND THEIR ROLE IN RESISTANCE TO ANTIBIOTICS
The review contains the current knowledge on the main issues of Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei biofilm formation. The role ofknown structural elements of Burkholderia cells (flagella, type IV pili, LPS), as well as autotransporter ...

AI‐Enabled Imaging for Pathogen Detection Under Stress Conditions: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Advances in pathogen detection that incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) may capture microbial signals under challenging environmental conditions that traditional methods miss. This systematic review evaluates the application, performance, and methodological characteristics of AI‐enabled imaging for pathogen detection, including its impact

PCR-based identification of Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]
DNA amplification techniques are being used increasingly in clinical laboratories to confirm the identity of medically important bacteria. A PCR-based identification method has been in use in our centre for 10 years for Burkholderia pseudomallei and was used to confirm the identity of bacteria isolated from cases of melioidosis in Ceará since 2003 ...
