Transposon mutagenesis in Proteus mirabilis [PDF]
A technique of transposon mutagenesis involving the use of Tn5 on a suicide plasmid was developed for Proteus mirabilis. Analysis of the resulting exconjugants indicated that Tn5 transposed in P. mirabilis at a frequency of ca. 4.5 x 10(-6) per recipient cell.

Methionine synthesis in Proteus mirabilis [PDF]
SUMMARY: Sixty different isolates of methionineless auxotrophs of Proteus mirabilis were arranged in nine biochemical groups according to their growth responses to methionine or its precursors. These requirements suggested that P. mirabilis possesses a route for methionine biosynthesis which is similar to the pathway operating in Escherichia coli and ...

An assessment of the antibacterial activity in larval excretion/secretion of four species of insects recorded in association with corpses, using Lucilia sericata Meigen as the marker species [PDF]
The relative antibacterial activities of excretion/secretion (ES) from two carrion-feeding insects, Calliphora vicina Robineau-Desvoidy and Dermestes maculatus DeGeer, and a detritivore, Tenebrio molitor Linnaeus, were compared to that of Lucilia ...

Proteus sp. – an opportunistic bacterial pathogen – classification, swarming growth, clinical significance and virulence factors [PDF]
The genus Proteus belongs to the Enterobacteriaceae family, where it is placed in the tribe Proteeae, together with the genera Morganella and Providencia. Currently, the genus Proteus consists of five species: P. mirabilis, P. vulgaris, P.

Proteus mirabilis: The Enemy Within [PDF]
The organism needs to tailor the intestinal inflammatory response to pathogenic bacteria and to pathobionts that are only occasionally pathogenic. In this issue of Immunity, Seo et al. (2015) show that the pathobiont Proteus mirabilis induces NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent interleukin-1β (IL-1β) release from CCR2(+) Ly6C(high) inflammatory monocytes.

Isolation & Pathogenic Study on Proteus mirabilis
During the period October 2003 till July 2004, about (253) urine samples have been collected from urinary tract infection. The study has shown that the bacterium Proteus mirabilis is the responsible for (11.85%) of the urinary tracts infections.
