The Influence of DNA Extraction and Lipid Removal on Human Milk Bacterial Profiles

open access: yesMethods and Protocols, 2020
Culture-independent molecular techniques have advanced the characterization of environmental and human samples including the human milk (HM) bacteriome. However, extraction of high-quality genomic DNA that is representative of the bacterial population in

Screening for Highly Transduced Genes in Staphylococcus aureus Revealed Both Lateral and Specialized Transduction

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Bacteriophage-mediated transduction of bacterial DNA is a major route of horizontal gene transfer in the human pathogen, Staphylococcus aureus. Transduction involves the packaging of bacterial DNA by viruses and enables the transmission of virulence and ...

Bacterial DNA is present in the fetal intestine and overlaps with that in the placenta in mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Bacterial DNA has been reported in the placenta and amniotic fluid by several independent groups of investigators. However, it's taxonomic overlap with fetal and maternal bacterial DNA in different sites has been poorly characterized. Here, we determined

Segmenting bacterial and viral DNA sequence alignments with a trans-dimensional phylogenetic factorial hidden Markov model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The traditional approach to phylogenetic inference assumes that a single phylogenetic tree can represent the relationships and divergence between the taxa. However, taxa sequences exhibit varying levels of conservation, e.g.

Plasmids of Psychrotolerant Polaromonas spp. Isolated From Arctic and Antarctic Glaciers – Diversity and Role in Adaptation to Polar Environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Cold-active bacteria of the genus Polaromonas (class Betaproteobacteria) are important components of glacial microbiomes. In this study, extrachromosomal replicons of 26 psychrotolerant Polaromonas strains, isolated from Arctic and Antarctic glaciers ...

Colony-stimulating factor-1 suppresses responses to CpG DNA and expression of toll-like receptor 9 but enhances responses to lipopolysaccharide in murine macrophages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
During bacterial infections, the balance between resolution of infection and development of sepsis is dependent upon the macrophage response to bacterial products.

Wolbachia and DNA barcoding insects: patterns, potential and problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Wolbachia is a genus of bacterial endosymbionts that impacts the breeding systems of their hosts. Wolbachia can confuse the patterns of mitochondrial variation, including DNA barcodes, because it influences the pathways through which mitochondria are ...
