Draft genome sequence of <i>Shewanella algae</i> JC874. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Shewanella algae are ubiquitous. They are pathogens affecting aquatic organisms and are emerging as pathogens to humans. Here, we present the genome of S. algae strain JC874, isolated from an alga, Codium sp.

Treatment and Management of Shewanella algae Necrotizing Cellulitis. [PDF]
Shewanella algae is considered an emerging novel pathogenic cause of severe skin infections. The organism is a gram-negative motile bacillus commonly found in marine environments. While the more common causes of skin and soft tissue infections include Staphylococcus aureus, beta-hemolytic Streptococci, and/or Vibrio vulnificus, S.

Regulation of colony morphology and biofilm formation in Shewanella algae. [PDF]
Summary Bacterial colony morphology can reflect different physiological stages such as virulence or biofilm formation. In this work we used transposon mutagenesis to identify genes that alter colony morphology and cause differential Congo Red (CR) and Brilliant Blue G (BBG) binding in ...

Complete Genome Sequence and Methylome of the Type Strain of Shewanella algae. [PDF]
We report the complete genome sequence and base modification analysis of the Shewanella algae type strain CECT 5071 (= OK-1 = ATCC 51192 = DSM 9167 = IAM 14159). The genome is composed of a single chromosome of 4,924,764 bp, with a GC content of 53.10%.

Skin and Soft Tissue Infections due to Shewanella algae – An Emerging Pathogen [PDF]
Introduction: Shewanella spp. are emerging human pathogens, the predominant species being Shewanella algae. Shewanella skin and soft tissue infections are more commonly seen in immunocompromised patients with a pre-existing cutaneous ulcer and most ...

Biochemical and Pathogenic Properties of Shewanella alga and Shewanella putrefaciens [PDF]
ABSTRACT We characterized 49 strains of Shewanella spp. from clinical ( n = 31) and nonhuman ( n = 18) sources. Most Shewanella alga organisms (Gilardi biovar 2; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC] biotype 2) originated ...

Shewanella algae in acute gastroenteritis
Shewanella algae is an emerging bacteria rarely implicated as a human pathogen. Previously reported cases of S. algae have mainly been associated with direct contact with seawater. Here we report the isolation of S. algae as the sole etiological agent from a patient suffering from acute gastroenteritis with bloody diarrhoea.

First Case of Osteomyelitis Due to Shewanella algae [PDF]
ABSTRACT Shewanella spp. are infrequently recovered from clinical specimens. We report here on the first case of osteomyelitis due to Shewanella algae . This bacterium, at first misidentified by phenotypic tests as Shewanella putrefaciens , was subsequently identified ...
