Cellular and Extracellular Proteome of the Animal Pathogen Corynebacterium silvaticum, a Close Relative of Zoonotic Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis [PDF]

Proteomes, 2020
Corynebacterium silvaticum is a newly described animal pathogen, closely related to the emerging human pathogen Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis, a major pathogen of small ruminants.

Nontoxigenic tox-bearing Corynebacterium ulcerans Infection among Game Animals, Germany

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
Corynebacterium ulcerans may cause diphtheria in humans and caseous lymphadenitis in animals. We isolated nontoxigenic tox-bearing C. ulcerans from 13 game animals in Germany.

Antimicrobial susceptibility of Corynebacterium diphtheriae and Corynebacterium ulcerans in Germany 2011–17 [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2020
Abstract Background Diphtheria is mainly caused by diphtheria-toxin-producing strains of Corynebacterium diphtheriae and Corynebacterium ulcerans. The recommended first-line antibiotic is penicillin or erythromycin, but reliable susceptibility data are scarce.

Identification of Corynebacterium ulcerans and Erysipelothrix sp. in Malayan pangolins—a potential threat to public health? [PDF]

mSphere
The discovery of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2-like and Middle East respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-like viruses in Malayan pangolins has raised concerns about their potential role in the spread of zoonotic diseases.

Comparative analysis of two complete Corynebacterium ulcerans genomes and detection of candidate virulence factors [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2011
Background Corynebacterium ulcerans has been detected as a commensal in domestic and wild animals that may serve as reservoirs for zoonotic infections. During the last decade, the frequency and severity of human infections associated with C.

Corynebacterium ulcerans Diphtheria in Japan

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003
To the Editor: Corynebacterium ulcerans causes a zoonotic infection similar to diphtheria, which is caused by C. diphtheriae. Studies indicate that signs and symptoms of a diphtheria-like illness caused by C. ulcerans are milder than those caused by C. diphtheriae. However, some strains of C.

Surface and Extracellular Proteome of the Emerging Pathogen Corynebacterium ulcerans [PDF]

Proteomes, 2018
Corynebacterium ulcerans is an emerging pathogen, which is increasingly recognized as an etiological agent of diphtheria, but can also evoke ulcers of the skin and systemic infections in humans.

Genome Sequence of Corynebacterium ulcerans Strain FRC11. [PDF]

Genome Announc, 2015
ABSTRACTHere, we present the genome sequence ofCorynebacterium ulceransstrain FRC11. The genome includes one circular chromosome of 2,442,826 bp (53.35% G+C content), and 2,210 genes were predicted, 2,146 of which are putative protein-coding genes, with 12 rRNAs and 51 tRNAs; 1 pseudogene was also identified.

Toxigenic Corynebacterium ulcerans in Woman and Cat

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
To the Editor: Toxigenic Corynebacterium ulcerans may cause a zoonotic infection similar to diphtheria caused by C. diphtheriae. Previously, dairy cattle were considered to be the main reservoir for C. ulcerans (1), but recent publications suggest pet dogs and pet cats as carriers (cats often show bilateral nasal discharge) (2).

Genome Sequence of Corynebacterium ulcerans Strain 210932. [PDF]

Genome Announc, 2014
ABSTRACTIn this work, we present the complete genome sequence ofCorynebacterium ulceransstrain 210932, isolated from a human. The species is an emergent pathogen that infects a variety of wild and domesticated animals and humans. It is associated with a growing number of cases of a diphtheria-like disease around the world.
