Dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes from antibiotic producers to pathogens [PDF]
It has been hypothesized that some antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) found in pathogenic bacteria derive from antibiotic-producing actinobacteria. Here we provide bioinformatic and experimental evidence supporting this hypothesis.

Nontoxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae: An Emerging Pathogen in England and Wales?
Confirmed isolates of nontoxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae in England and Wales increased substantially from 1986 to 1994. Ribotyping of 121 isolates confirmed in 1995 showed that 90 were of a single strain isolated exclusively from the throat; none ...

Complexation of CcmB with CcmACD safeguards heme translocation for cytochrome c maturation
Abstract Cytochrome c maturation (CCM), a posttranslational modification involving covalent attachment of heme to polypeptides (apocyt c), is essential for the activity and cellular function of cytochromes c. Here, we identify and substantiate CcmB as heme translocase in bacteria.

Electron Transport Chain Is Biochemically Linked to Pilus Assembly Required for Polymicrobial Interactions and Biofilm Formation in the Gram-Positive Actinobacterium Actinomyces oris. [PDF]
The Gram-positive actinobacteria Actinomyces spp. are key colonizers in the development of oral biofilms due to the inherent ability of Actinomyces to adhere to receptor polysaccharides on the surface of oral streptococci and host cells.
