Development and Validation of a High‐Throughput Screening Assay for the Legionella ADP‐Ribosyl Transferase SdeA

ChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 21, November 8, 2025.
We show the optimization and application of a fluorogenic assay to monitor Legionella SdeA activity in a High‐Throughput‐Screening campaign. Ubiquitination of proteins is one of the most crucial post‐translational modifications in eukaryotic cells, typically involving conjugation of ubiquitin to a lysine residue in a substrate using a three‐enzyme ...

Diagnostic testing for Legionnaires’ disease

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2017
Legionnaires’ disease is commonly diagnosed clinically using a urinary antigen test. The urinary antigen test is highly accurate for L. pneumophila serogroup 1, however other diagnostic tests should also be utilized in conjunction with the urinary ...

Legionella pneumophila: an aquatic microbe goes astray [PDF]

, 2002
Legionella pneumophila is naturally found in fresh water were the bacteria parasitize within protozoa. It also survives planctonically in water or biofilms. Upon aerosol formation via man-made water systems, L.

Diversity and assembly of the microbiome of a leguminous plant along an urbanization gradient

Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.
Interactions between plants and bacterial communities are essential for host physiology and broader ecosystem functioning, but plant–microbiome interactions can be disrupted by environmental change like urbanization. Here, we evaluated how urbanization affected the diversity and assembly of soil and white clover Trifolium repens microbiome communities.

Rainfall is a risk factor for sporadic cases of Legionella pneumophila Pneumonia [PDF]

, 2013
It is not known whether rainfall increases the risk of sporadic cases of Legionella pneumonia. We sought to test this hypothesis in a prospective observational cohort study of non-immunosuppressed adults hospitalized for community-acquired pneumonia ...

Climate‐specific dynamics of fall armyworm on maize: Implications for pest monitoring and management

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 600-612, November 2025.
FAW moth captures were higher in the Sudanese zone than the Guinean zone, peaking during the major rainy season, while the Guinean zone had more captures in the dry season. In the Guinean zone, plant damage correlated with adult moth captures and larval densities, whereas no such correlation was found in the Sudanese zone or at different maize growth ...

Nosocomial Legionnaires’ Disease: Clinical and Radiographic Patterns

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1992
From 1981 to 1991, 55 patients (33 males, 22 females, mean age 58.6 years) with nosocomial Legionnaires’ disease were studied. The mortality rate was 64%. One-half of the patients developed nosocomial Legionnaires’ disease within three weeks of admission.

Legionella pneumonia cases over a five-year period: a descriptive, retrospective study of outcomes in a UK district hospital [PDF]

, 2013
As the recent outbreaks in Edinburgh and Camarthen, UK, have shown, Legionella pneumonia (LP) remains a significant public health problem, which is not only confined to those who have travelled abroad.

Perfoliate Pondweed Meadows in Northern Coastal Areas—Reservoirs of Diverse Bacteria With Pathogenic Traits and Complex Carbon Metabolism

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2025.
The perfoliate pondweed, Potamogeton perfoliatus, is a common macrophyte in freshwater and subarctic coastal areas. This species builds extensive meadows that play a role as a filter removing nutrients traversing from land to sea and maintaining essential ecosystem functions.

Legionnaires’ Disease: Clinicoradiological Comparison of Sporadic Versus Outbreak Cases

Clinical Medicine Insights: Circulatory, Respiratory and Pulmonary Medicine, 2017
Background: In 2015, New York City experienced the worst outbreak of Legionnaires’ disease in the history of the city. We compare patients seen during the 2015 outbreak with sporadic cases of Legionella during the past 5 years.
