Diversity and role of plasmids in adaptation of bacteria inhabiting the Lubin copper mine in Poland, an environment rich in heavy metals

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The Lubin underground mine, is one of three mining divisions in the Lubin-Glogow Copper District in Lower Silesia province (Poland). It is the source of polymetallic ore that is rich in copper, silver and several heavy metals.

CRISPR/FnCas12a-mediated efficient multiplex and iterative genome editing in bacterial plant pathogens without donor DNA templates.

PLoS Pathogens, 2023
CRISPR-based genome editing technology is revolutionizing prokaryotic research, but it has been rarely studied in bacterial plant pathogens. Here, we have developed a targeted genome editing method with no requirement of donor templates for convenient ...

Assembling the perfect bacterial genome using Oxford Nanopore and Illumina sequencing

PLoS Computational Biology, 2023
A perfect bacterial genome assembly is one where the assembled sequence is an exact match for the organism’s genome—each replicon sequence is complete and contains no errors. While this has been difficult to achieve in the past, improvements in long-read

Extra-Chromosomal DNA Sequencing Reveals Episomal Prophages Capable of Impacting Virulence Factor Expression in Staphylococcus aureus

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Staphylococcus aureus is a major human pathogen with well-characterized bacteriophage contributions to its virulence potential. Recently, we identified plasmidial and episomal prophages in S.

One bacterial cell, one complete genome. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
While the bulk of the finished microbial genomes sequenced to date are derived from cultured bacterial and archaeal representatives, the vast majority of microorganisms elude current culturing attempts, severely limiting the ability to recover complete ...

Genome sequence of Christensenella minuta DSM 22607T [PDF]

, 2017
Obesity influences and is influenced by the human gut microbiome. Here, we present the genome of Christensenella minuta, a highly heritable bacterial species which has been found to be strongly associated with obesity through an unknown biological ...

Complex Class 1 Integron in a Clinical Escherichia coli Strain From Vietnam Carrying Both mcr-1 and blaNDM–1

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The co-production of MCR and carbapenemase in Enterobacteriaceae has been previously reported. Here, we describe a clinical strain of Escherichia coli from Vietnam carrying both mcr-1 and blaNDM–1.

SIMBA: a web tool for managing bacterial genome assembly generated by Ion PGM sequencing technology [PDF]

, 2016
Background The evolution of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) has considerably reduced the cost per sequenced-base, allowing a significant rise of sequencing projects, mainly in prokaryotes. However, the range of available NGS platforms requires different
