DETECTION OF ExoT GENE IN LOCAL ISOLATES OF PSEUDOMONAS AUROGINOSA IN A SAMPLE OF BURN INFECTION
Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is an opportunistic microorganism that requires damaged mucus membranes and epithelial tissues to cause acute infections. It had been stated that P.

Quorum sensing is not required for twitching motility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
It has been reported that mutations in the quorum-sensing genes lasI and rhlI in Pseudomonas aeruginosa result in, among many other things, loss of twitching motility (A. Glessner, R. S. Smith, B. H. Iglewski, and J. B. Robinson, J. Bacteriol.

Low concentrations of local honey modulate ETA expression, and quorum sensing related virulence in drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa recovered from infected burn wounds [PDF]
Objective(s): Honey’s ability to kill microorganisms and even eradication of chronic infections with drug-resistant pathogens has been documented by numerous studies.

Identification of a Chitin-Binding Protein Secreted by Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
One of the major proteins secreted by Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a 43-kDa protein, which is cleaved by elastase into smaller fragments, including a 30-kDa and a 23-kDa fragment. The N-terminal 23-kDa fragment was previously suggested as corresponding to

Transcription and Expression of the Exotoxin A Gene of Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
The exotoxin A genes from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains PA103 and PAO1 have been independently cloned in a pUC9-derived plasmid. In a non-toxigenic mutant of PAO1 as host, the cloned genes directed the synthesis of intact exotoxin A that expressed ADP-ribosyltransferase activity upon treatment with urea and dithiothreitol.

A total of 16 chemically synthesized capsular polysaccharide (CPS) fragments related to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Acinetobacter baumannii were analyzed by glycan microarray. Comparative screening revealed three conserved epitopes that act as cross‐protective vaccine lead candidates against multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacterial ...

Type IV Pili Can Mediate Bacterial Motility within Epithelial Cells. [PDF]
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is among bacterial pathogens capable of twitching motility, a form of surface-associated movement dependent on type IV pili (T4P). Previously, we showed that T4P and twitching were required for P.

As implantable medical devices become indispensable to modern medicine, a silent threat grows alongside them: device‐associated infections. Despite decades of antibiotic innovation, infection rates keep climbing, costing lives and billions in healthcare expenses.
