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.

Insights into the flexibility of the domain‐linking loop in actinobacterial coproheme decarboxylase through structures and molecular dynamics simulations

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2025.
Abstract Prokaryotic heme biosynthesis in Gram‐positive bacteria follows the coproporphyrin‐dependent heme biosynthesis pathway. The last step in this pathway is catalyzed by the enzyme coproheme decarboxylase, which oxidatively transforms two propionate groups into vinyl groups yielding heme b.

Antimicrobial resistance among Brazilian Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2008
The increasing problems with multidrug resistance in relation to Corynebacterium, including C. diphtheriae, are examples of challenges confronting many countries. For this reason, Brazilian C.

Rare human skin infection with Corynebacterium ulcerans: transmission by a domestic cat [PDF]

, 2018
Corynebacterium ulcerans is mainly known for its ability to cause animal infections. Some strains of C. ulcerans produce diphtheria toxin, which can cause life-threatening cardiopathies and neuropathies in humans. Human cutaneous C. ulcerans infection is

Genome-wide comparison of Corynebacterium diphtheriae isolates from Australia identifies differences in the Pan-genomes between respiratory and cutaneous strains

BMC Genomics, 2018
Corynebacterium diphtheriae is the main etiological agent of diphtheria, a global disease causing life-threatening infections, particularly in infants and children. Vaccination with diphtheria toxoid protects against infection with potent toxin producing

Perbandingan Pemeriksaan Toksigenisitas secara Genotip dan Fenotip pada Beberapa Isolat Corynebacterium Diphtheriae Penyebab Difteri di Indonesia [PDF]

, 2016
Corynebacterium diphteriae's toxin can be detected by using in vivo and in vitro examination. Detection of the toxin using the Guinea pig is a gold standard. This method requires a long time and has been opposed by animal right organization.

Transcriptome sequencing of the human pathogen Corynebacterium diphtheriae NCTC 13129 provides detailed insights into its transcriptional landscape and into DtxR-mediated transcriptional regulation

BMC Genomics, 2018
The human pathogen Corynebacterium diphtheriae is the causative agent of diphtheria. In the 1990s a large diphtheria outbreak in Eastern Europe was caused by the strain C. diphtheriae NCTC 13129.
