Widespread macrolide resistance among rapidly growing mycobacteria due to plasmids containing erm(55)

Scientific Reports
Macrolides (clarithromycin and azithromycin) are a mainstay of therapy for infections caused by rapidly growing mycobacteria (RGM). Historically, macrolide resistance in RGM species is associated with mutations in the 23S rRNA gene and chromosomal ...

Comparative genomic analyses reveal a lack of a substantial signature of host adaptation in Rhodococcus equi (‘Prescottella equi’) [PDF]

, 2013
Rhodococcus equi (‘Prescottella equi’) is a pathogenic actinomycete primarily infecting horses but has emerged as an opportunistic human pathogen. We have sequenced the genome of the type strain of this species, R.

Changes in the microbiome and metabolome in captive red kangaroos (Osphranter rufus) affected by macropod progressive periodontal disease

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Macropod progressive periodontal disease (MPPD) is a severe oral condition frequently observed in captive macropods, particularly red kangaroos (Osphranter rufus), yet its underlying biological features remain poorly understood. In this exploratory descriptive study, we investigated oral and fecal microbiomes and metabolomic profiles in captive red ...

Large mediastinal mass diagnosed as Nocardia infection by endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration in a ceramic worker: A case report

Frontiers in Surgery, 2023
BackgroundNocardia is a ubiquitous soil saprophyte transmitted through airborne or direct cutaneous inoculation routes. Although Nocardia is more common in immunocompromised patients, Nocardia may also arise in apparently immunocompetent patients.Case ...

Microbial Endolithic Community at Meteor Crater

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Postimpact recovery and evolution in response to climate changes produced a modern ecosystem at Meteor Crater dominated by a grassland and woodland of piñon and juniper, which has been used to evaluate floral and megafaunal consequences of impact cratering during the Phanerozoic Eon of complex life.
