Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of Brucella melitensis Phylogeny and Virulence Factors
Brucellosis has a wide range of clinical severity in humans that remains poorly understood. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis may be able to detect variation in virulence genes. We used Brucella melitensis sequences in the NCBI Sequence Read Archive

SpxA1 and SpxA2 act coordinately to fine-tune stress responses and virulence in Streptococcus pyogenes [PDF]
SpxA is a unique transcriptional regulator highly conserved among members of the phylum Firmicutes that binds RNA polymerase and can act as an antiactivator. Why some Firmicutes members have two highly similar SpxA paralogs is not understood.

Characterisation of virulence genes associated with pathogenicity in Klebsiella pneumoniae
Purpose: This study was undertaken to characterise the virulence factors in clinical strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae and analyse their association with various infections caused and also to determine the association between virulence factors and ...

The Landscape of Realized Homologous Recombination in Pathogenic Bacteria [PDF]
Recombination enhances the adaptive potential of organisms by allowing genetic variants to be tested on multiple genomic backgrounds. Its distribution in the genome can provide insight into the evolutionary forces that underlie traits, such as the ...

Detection of virulence genes in Salmonella Heidelberg isolated from chicken carcasses
During the last years, Brazilian government control programs have detected an increase of Salmonella Heidelberg in poultry slaughterhouses a condition that poses a threat to human health However, the reasons remain unclear.

Gene inversion potentiates bacterial evolvability and virulence [PDF]
Abstract Most bacterial genes are encoded on the leading strand, co-orienting the movement of the replication machinery with RNA polymerases. This bias reduces the frequency of detrimental head-on collisions between the two machineries.
