Programmable 3D Microfluidics Reveals Motility‐Driven Antibiotic Resistance Evolution in Gradients

Small, EarlyView.
Using a programmable microfluidic platform, this study shows that bacterial motility is crucial for resistance development in heterogeneous antibiotic landscapes. Motile Escherichia coli randomly migrates along antibiotic gradients, and sufficient movement is required for resistance to emerge.

Genome sequence of Serratia marcescens phage BF [PDF]

, 2017
Phages infecting Serratia marcescens, a common causative agent of nosocomial infections, have potential therapeutic applications. Here, we report the complete genome of the novel S.

The cloning , expression and characterisation of bacterial chitin-binding proteins from pseudomonas aeruginosa , serratia marcescens, photorhabdus luminescens and photorhabdus asymbiotica. [PDF]

, 2011
It is well recognised that most proteins are subject to post translational modifications and that these modifications can have specific effects on the biological properties and functions of these proteins.

Comprehensive evaluation of metagenomic next‐generation sequencing for pathogen identification in patients with suspected infection: Establishment of a standardized validation workflow

VIEW, EarlyView.
Comprehensive evaluation of metagenomic next‐generation sequencing for pathogen identification in patients with suspected infection: Establishment of a standardized validation workflow. Abstract Metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS) enables unbiased identification of pathogens directly from clinical specimens. Despite its growing application in

Metabolic Engineering of Serratia marcescens [PDF]

, 2018
The potential value of the chitin biomass (e.g. food waste) is recently considered being ignored by landfill. Chitin can be a potential cheap carbon source for converting into value-added chemicals by microorganisms. Serratia marcescens is a chitinolytic

Rare post-operative intracranial abscess due to Serratia marcescens: what we can learn from it?

BMC Infectious Diseases
Background Nosocomial infections caused by Serratia marcescens mostly occurred in pediatrics and it was very rarely reported after adult surgery. Here, an intracranial abscess caused by Serratia marcescens was reported. Case summary We report a rare case

Characterization of the dynamic microbiome evolution across thrips species

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Comprehensive survey of the microbiome in thrips. The dominant bacterial genera found in thrips include intracellular ones, such as Wolbachia and Spiroplasma, and extracellular ones, including Serratia, Pantoea, and Acinetobacter. We isolated and sequenced high‐quality genomes of two dominant symbionts, Pantoea dispersa and Serratia marcescens.

Heterologous expression from Agrobacterium virulence promoters [PDF]

, 1991
The aim of this work was twofold: to construct plasmids with a gene encoding a pesticidal protein expressed from an Agrobacterium tumefaciens virulence promoter and to determine, in planta, the sites of Agrobacterium vir-induction.

Stable flies preferentially oviposit on sites offering conspecific eggs with egg‐derived bacterial semiochemicals

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Stable flies preferentially oviposit on sites offering conspecific eggs with egg‐derived airborne semiochemicals. Egg‐borne bacterial symbionts, and Serratia marcescens in particular, produce odorants which attract gravid female flies and elicit oviposition.

Necrotizing Cavitary Pneumonia by Serratia marcescens in a Patient Treated With Dupilumab: Correlation or Causation?

Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases
Serratia species are gram-negative bacilli causing opportunistic and nosocomial infections, often in patients who are immunocompromised. A 61-year-old man with severe asthma receiving dupilumab presented with fever and chills. A chest computed tomography
