Maturation of molybdoenzymes and its influence on the pathogenesis of non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae [PDF]
Mononuclear molybdenum enzymes of the dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) reductase family occur exclusively in prokaryotes, and a loss of some these enzymes has been linked to a loss of bacterial virulence in several cases. The MobA protein catalyzes the final step in the synthesis of the molybdenum guanine dinucleotide (MGD) cofactor that is exclusive to ...

Geogenic particles induce bronchial susceptibility to non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae
Exposure to geogenic (earth-derived) particulate matter (PM) is linked to an increased prevalence of bronchiectasis and other respiratory infections in Australian Indigenous communities. Experimental studies have shown that the concentration of iron in geogenic PM is associated with the magnitude of respiratory health effects, however, the mechanism is

Microbiological Characterization of Haemophilus influenzae Isolated from Patients with Lower Respiratory Tract Infections in a Tertiary Care Hospital, South India [PDF]
Introduction: Haemophilus influenzae is responsible for wide range of localized and invasive lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) with the highest burden of disease in low and middle income countries.

Gallium protoporphyrin as an antimicrobial for non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae in COPD patients
Colonisation with non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is common in COPD. Iron is required by bacteria for nutrition. Gallium is imported into bacteria using iron import proteins. Gallium cannot fulfill key metabolic functions, causing bactericidal effects.

Generation of Non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae Directed Gene Deletion Mutants
Directed deletion mutants in non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae can be made by allelic exchange of the target gene with an artificial DNA construct in which an antibiotic resistance cassette is placed between two ~1,000 bp DNA sequences that are ...
