Presence of squalene in gram-positive bacteria [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Bacteriology, 1978
The presence of the isoprenoid squalene, synthesized de novo, was demonstrated in 64 out of 73 strains of gram-positive bacteria by thin-layer chromatography. This observation was confirmed by gas-liquid chromatography, chemical reactivity, incorporation of radiolabeled precursor, and by gas chromatography mass spectroscopy of thin-layer chromatography-

Automated identification of gram-positive bacteria [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1982
A total of 451 strains of gram-positive bacteria were identified with a prototype of the Gram-Positive Identification card used in conjunction with the AutoMicrobic system (Vitek Systems, Inc., Hazelwood, Mo.). Of the species that the Gram-Positive Identification card is capable of identifying, 85% of staphylococcal, 50% of beta-hemolytic group A, B, C,

Hyaluronidases of Gram-positive bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2000
Bacterial hyaluronidases, enzymes capable of breaking down hyaluronate, are produced by a number of pathogenic Gram-positive bacteria that initiate infections at the skin or mucosal surfaces. Since reports of the hyaluronidases first appeared, there have been numerous suggestions as to the role of the enzyme in the disease process.

Small proteins in Gram-positive bacteria. [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiol Rev, 2023
Abstract Small proteins comprising less than 100 amino acids have been often ignored in bacterial genome annotations. About 10 years ago, focused efforts started to investigate whole peptidomes, which resulted in the discovery of a multitude of small proteins, but only a number of them have been characterized in detail.

Bacteriocins of gram-positive bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiological Reviews, 1995
In recent years, a group of antibacterial proteins produced by gram-positive bacteria have attracted great interest in their potential use as food preservatives and as antibacterial agents to combat certain infections due to gram-positive pathogenic bacteria.

Conjugation in Gram-Positive Bacteria

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2014
ABSTRACT Conjugative transfer is the most important means of spreading antibiotic resistance and virulence factors among bacteria. The key vehicles of this horizontal gene transfer are a group of mobile genetic elements, termed conjugative plasmids. Conjugative plasmids contain as minimum instrumentation an origin of transfer (

Characterization of the Plasmid Encoded Virulence Region pat-1 of Phytopathogenic Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1997
The tomato pathogen Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis NCPPB382, causing bacterial wilt and canker, harbors two plasmids, pCM1 (27.5 kb) and pCM2 (72 kb), carrying genes involved in virulence.

Uptake of indolmycin in gram-positive bacteria [PDF]

open access: greenAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1980
The antimicrobial activity of indolmycin correlates with the generation time of the investigated strains. Thus, in Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 13150 with a 37-min generation time, the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was 0.6 microgram ml-1, and in Bacillus subtilis ATCC 27142 with a generation time of 23 min, the MIC reached 10.5 micrograms ml-1 ...

Quorum-Sensing Inhibition by Gram-Positive Bacteria

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
The modern paradigm assumes that interspecies communication of microorganisms occurs through precise regulatory mechanisms. In particular, antagonism between bacteria or bacteria and fungi can be achieved by direct destruction of the targeted cells ...
