Helicobacter pylori virulence genes

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2019
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is one of the most important human pathogens, infecting approximately half of the global population. Despite its high prevalence, only a subset of H.

Mining virulence genes using metagenomics.

PLoS ONE, 2011
When a bacterial genome is compared to the metagenome of an environment it inhabits, most genes recruit at high sequence identity. In free-living bacteria (for instance marine bacteria compared against the ocean metagenome) certain genomic regions are ...

Regulation of virulence gene expression [PDF]

Virulence, 2014
The bacterial pathogen that finds itself, either by accident or design, within the human or animal host, senses and adapts to the prevailing conditions by modulating its gene expression on a global...

Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals that ATP synthases regulate Fusarium oxysporum virulence by modulating sugar transporter gene expressions in tobacco

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Fusarium oxysporum is a main causative agent of tobacco root rot, severely affecting tobacco growth. Here, 200 F. oxysporum strains were isolated and examined for their virulence toward tobacco plants.

Emerging MDR-Pseudomonas aeruginosa in fish commonly harbor oprL and toxA virulence genes and blaTEM, blaCTX-M, and tetA antibiotic-resistance genes

Scientific Reports, 2020
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence, antibiogram of Pseudomonasaeruginosa (P.aeruginosa), and the distribution of virulence genes (oprL,exoS, phzM, and toxA) and the antibiotic-resistance genes (blaTEM, tetA, and blaCTX-M). A total of 285 fish

PathoFact: a pipeline for the prediction of virulence factors and antimicrobial resistance genes in metagenomic data

Microbiome, 2021
Pathogenic microorganisms cause disease by invading, colonizing, and damaging their host. Virulence factors including bacterial toxins contribute to pathogenicity.

Prevalence, virulence genes, and antimicrobial resistance of Vibrio species isolated from diseased marine fish in South China

Scientific Reports, 2020
Here, 70 potential Vibrio pathogens belonging to nine species, dominated by Vibrio harveyi, were isolated and identified from diseased aquacultured marine fish in South China.

Occurrence of virulence-associated genes in Streptococcus uberis and Streptococcus parauberis isolated from bovine mastitis

Veterinární Medicína, 2022
Streptococcus uberis is one of the most important mastitis-causing pathogens. Although the pathogenesis and virulence factors required for the intramammary infection development are not yet well established, several putative virulence-associated genes ...

Computational bacterial genome-wide analysis of phylogenetic profiles reveals potential virulence genes of Streptococcus agalactiae. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The phylogenetic profile of a gene is a reflection of its evolutionary history and can be defined as the differential presence or absence of a gene in a set of reference genomes.
