A plasmid in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Bacteriology, 1979
Plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid has been detected in three related laboratory strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae. Strains D39S, R36, and R36NC each contain a minimum of two copies per cell of a 2.0-megadalton plasmid (pDP1). A plasmid twice as large as this smaller one is also present in much lower quantity in these strains, but neither plasmid is ...

Lysogeny in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Bacterial viruses, or bacteriophages, are major contributors to the evolution, pathogenesis and overall biology of their host bacteria. During their life cycle, temperate bacteriophages form stable associations with their host by integrating into the chromosome, a process called lysogeny.

Streptococcus pneumoniae

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2015
Research on Streptococcus pneumoniae has revealed key aspects in the study of infectious diseases and pathogen evolution, but pneumococci remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality. New insights into the pathogenic mechanisms of this species confirmed the key role of the capsular polysaccharide but have also identified the important functions ...

A shared mucosal gut microbiota signature in primary sclerosing cholangitis before and after liver transplantation

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
In this study of the gut mucosal microbiota in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), we found consistent microbiota features associated with PSC and recurrent PSC, PSC with inflammatory bowel disease and a persistent gut dysbiosis after liver transplantation Abstract Background and Aims Several characteristic features of the fecal microbiota have been ...

Severe problem of macrolides resistance to common pathogens in China

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
With the widespread use of macrolide antibiotics in China, common pathogens causing children’s infections, such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus (including Group A streptococcus, Group B streptococcus), Staphylococcus aureus, Bordetella ...
