Phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancient gene duplication as the origin of the MdtABC efflux pump. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The efflux pumps from the Resistance-Nodulation-Division family, RND, are main contributors to intrinsic antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. Among this family, the MdtABC pump is unusual by having two inner membrane components.

The bacterial antitoxin HipB establishes a ternary complex with operator DNA and phosphorylated toxin HipA to regulate bacterial persistence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Nearly all bacteria exhibit a type of phenotypic growth described as persistence that is thought to underlie antibiotic tolerance and recalcitrant chronic infections.

Shewanella saliphila sp. nov., Shewanella ulleungensis sp. nov. and Shewanella litoralis sp. nov., isolated from coastal seawater

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2018
Three Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped and motile bacterial strains, designated MMS16-UL250T, MMS16-UL253T and MMS16-UL482T, were isolated from coastal seawater and subjected to taxonomic characterization. All isolates grew at 4-30 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 6-10 (pH 7) and in the presence of up to 8 % NaCl (2.5-4.5 %).

Structure and evolution of chlorate reduction composite transposons. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
UnlabelledThe genes for chlorate reduction in six bacterial strains were analyzed in order to gain insight into the metabolism. A newly isolated chlorate-reducing bacterium (Shewanella algae ACDC) and three previously isolated strains (Ideonella ...

Shewanella japonica sp. nov. [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2001
Two strains of agar-digesting bacteria, KMM 3299T and KMM 3300, respectively isolated from sea water and the mussel Protothaca jedoensis, have been characterized. Based on sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene, KMM 3299T showed the highest similarity (93-95%) to members of the genus Shewanella.

Prevalence, Antibiotic Resistance, and Control of Pathogenic Shewanella in Seafoods

open access: yesJournal of Food Protection
Some Shewanella spp. have been classified as emerging pathogens and are a concern for food safety. Species such as Shewanella algae and Shewanella putrefaciens are known to cause soft tissue necrosis and invasive infections from marine exposure.

Biofabrication of gold nanoparticles by Shewanella species

open access: yesBioresources and Bioprocessing, 2017
Background Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 (MR-1) and Shewanella xiamenensis BC01 (SXM) are facultative anaerobic bacteria that exhibit outstanding performance in the dissimilatory reduction of metal ions.

The ‘porin-cytochrome’ model for microbe-to-mineral electron transfer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Many species of bacteria can couple anaerobic growth to the respiratory reduction of insoluble minerals containing Fe(III) or Mn(III/IV). It has been suggested that in Shewanella species electrons cross the outer membrane to extracellular substrates via ‘

Graphene oxide composite membrane accelerates organic pollutant degradation by Shewanella bacteria

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2021
Degradation of various organic pollutants by bacteria has been proved to be an economical and environmentally friendly method. The key challenge in making these technologies widely available is their low degradation efficiency.

100 years of microbial electricity production : three concepts for the future [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Bioelectrochemical systems (BES) have been explored according to three main concepts: to produce energy from organic substrates, to generate products and to provide specific environmental services.
