Corynebacterium diphtheriae Virulence Analyses Using a Caenorhabditis elegans Model
Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2020 Corynebacterium diphtheriae is the leading cause of pharyngeal diphtheria, a respiratory disease characterized by formation of a pseudomembrane at the site of infection. Although outbreaks of C.

Diphtheria diagnostic capacity in the Western Pacific Region
Western Pacific Surveillance and Response, 2019 Diphtheria is an acute infectious disease affecting the upper respiratory tract and occasionally the skin and is caused by the action of diphtheria toxin produced by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium ...

iMeta, Volume 4, Issue 4, August 2025.In this study, we found evidence of phage‐mediated horizontal transfer of virulence genes in Salmonella enterica in global habitats from a molecular evolutionary perspective. Notably, csrA, a global regulator in Salmonella enterica, curbed horizontal gene transfer by inhibiting the cyclization and release of prophage.

Next-generation systematics: An innovative approach to resolve the structure of complex prokaryotic taxa [PDF]
, 2016 Prokaryotic systematics provides the fundamental framework for microbiological research but remains a discipline that relies on a labour- and time-intensive polyphasic taxonomic approach, including DNA-DNA hybridization, variation in 16S rRNA gene ...

Genetic Manipulation of Corynebacterium diphtheriae and Other Corynebacterium Species
Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2020 This article describes several established approaches for genetic manipulation of Corynebacterium diphtheriae, the causative agent of diphtheria that is known to have provided key evidence for Koch's postulates on the germ theory.

Multiplex PCR assay for identification of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis from pure cultures and for rapid detection of this pathogen in clinical samples. [PDF]
, 2019 : Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis is the aetiological agent of caseous lymphadenitis (CLA), a debilitating disease of sheep and goats. Accurate diagnosis of CLA primarily relies on microbiological examination, followed by biochemical identification of

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 124, Issue 2, Page 115-130, August 2025.Iron is essential for life, yet excessive levels can quickly lead to cellular damage via oxidative stress, underscoring the need for global regulators of iron and heme homeostasis. In this study, we present a genome‐wide analysis of the binding patterns of DtxR and HrrA in Corynebacterium glutamicum . Our findings highlight the interconnected nature of
