Diversity and Comparison of Intestinal Desulfovibrio in Patients with Liver Cirrhosis and Healthy People

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Desulfovibrio belongs to Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), which are widely present in anaerobic environments, including the human gut. Desulfovibrio has been associated with many human diseases, including chronic liver disease.

Desulfovibrio bacteria enhance alpha-synuclein aggregation in a Caenorhabditis elegans model of Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionThe aggregation of the neuronal protein alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn) is a key feature in the pathology of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Alpha-syn aggregation has been suggested to be induced in the gut cells by pathogenic gut microbes such as ...

Genetic basis for nitrate resistance in Desulfovibrio strains

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Nitrate is an inhibitor of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB). In petroleum production sites, amendments of nitrate and nitrite are used to prevent SRB production of sulfide that causes souring of oil wells.

Desulfovibrio in the Gut: The Enemy within?

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Desulfovibrio (DSV) are sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) that are ubiquitously present in the environment and as resident commensal bacteria within the human gastrointestinal tract. Though they are minor residents of the healthy gut, DSV are opportunistic pathobionts that may overgrow in the setting of various intestinal and extra-intestinal diseases ...

Desulfovibrio is not always associated with adverse health effects in the Guangdong Gut Microbiome Project [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Desulfovibrio (DSV) is frequently found in the human intestine but limited knowledge is available regarding the relationship between DSV and host health.

The reductive glycine pathway allows autotrophic growth of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
There are several pathways for CO2 fixation in photoautotrophic and chemoautotrophic microorganisms. Here, the authors provide experimental demonstration for the operation of the reductive glycine pathway in a natural microorganism, Desulfovibrio ...

Screening and characterization of prophages in Desulfovibrio genomes [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
AbstractBacteria of the genus Desulfovibrio belong to the group of Sulphate Reducing Bacteria (SRB). SRB generate significant liabilities in the petroleum industry, mainly due to their ability to microbiologically induce corrosion, biofilm formation and H2S production. Bacteriophages are an alternative control method for SRB, whose information for this

The genetic basis of energy conservation in the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio alaskensis G20. [PDF]

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2014
Sulfate-reducing bacteria play major roles in the global carbon and sulfur cycles, but it remains unclear how reducing sulfate yields energy. To determine the genetic basis of energy conservation, we measured the fitness of thousands of pooled mutants of

Functional genomics with a comprehensive library of transposon mutants for the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio alaskensis G20. [PDF]

open access: yesmBio, 2014
UnlabelledThe genomes of sulfate-reducing bacteria remain poorly characterized, largely due to a paucity of experimental data and genetic tools. To meet this challenge, we generated an archived library of 15,477 mapped transposon insertion mutants in the

A Case of Liver Abscess with Desulfovibrio desulfuricans Bacteremia

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, 2015
Desulfovibrio spp. are gram-negative, sulfate-reducing, and anaerobic bacteria found in the digestive tract of humans. Because Desulfovibrio spp. are infrequent causative agents of infectious diseases and are difficult to isolate and to identify from ...
