Host Specificity of Bacterial Pathogens [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2013
Most pathogens are able to infect multiple hosts but some are highly adapted to a single-host species. A detailed understanding of the basis of host specificity can provide important insights into molecular pathogenesis, the evolution of pathogenic microbes, and the potential for pathogens to cross the species barrier to infect new hosts.

Molecular basis of host specificity in human pathogenic bacteria [PDF]

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2014
Pathogenic bacteria display various levels of host specificity or tropism. While many bacteria can infect a wide range of hosts, certain bacteria have strict host selectivity for humans as obligate human pathogens. Understanding the genetic and molecular

Host specificity and genetics of host resistance in the "Daphnia-Pasteuria" host-parasite system [PDF]

, 2012
Antagonistic coevolution plays an important role in a large number of evolutionary and ecological phenomena. Furthermore, according to the Red Queen Theory coevolution between hosts and their parasites may explain the maintenance of sexual reproduction ...

Host specificities of RNA phages [PDF]

Journal of Hygiene, 1972
SUMMARYHost ranges of members of four groups of male-specific RNA coliphages were determined by plating on hosts carrying various derepressed plasmids. An RNA phage originally isolated onPseudomonas aeruginosafailed to form plaques on any of the strains ofEscherichia coli.

Comparative host specificity of human- and pig- associated Staphylococcus aureus clonal lineages. [PDF]

, 2012
Bacterial adhesion is a crucial step in colonization of the skin. In this study, we investigated the differential adherence to human and pig corneocytes of six Staphylococcus aureus strains belonging to three human-associated [ST8 (CC8), ST22 (CC22) and ...

Host specialization of different populations of ergot fungus (Claviceps purpurea)

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2002
In our previous study of Claviceps purpurea three populations were found: G1 on open localities, G2 from shady or wet habitats and G3 on Spartina stands of coastal salt marshes. The latter two are also chemoraces.

The Trw Type IV Secretion System of Bartonella Mediates Host-Specific Adhesion to Erythrocytes [PDF]

, 2010
Bacterial pathogens typically infect only a limited range of hosts; however, the genetic mechanisms governing host-specificity are poorly understood.

Study of the host specificity of PB1-F2-associated virulence

Virulence, 2021
Influenza A viruses cause important diseases in both human and animal. The PB1-F2 protein is a virulence factor expressed by some influenza viruses.

Influenza A Virus–Host Specificity: An Ongoing Cross-Talk Between Viral and Host Factors

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
One big threat from influenza A viruses (IAVs) is that novel viruses emerge from mutation alongside reassortment. Some of them have gained the capability to transmit into human from the avian reservoir. Understanding the molecular events and the involved

Host Identity Specific Multicast [PDF]

International Conference on Networking and Services (ICNS '07), 2007
Multicasting is a key technology for both users and service providers as it enables important bandwidth savings, and thus lower costs, for content distribution and group communication. The current network level multicast solutions have several weaknesses.
