Salmonella virulence plasmid: pathogenesis and ecology [PDF]
Pathogens and Disease, 2017 A current view on the role of the Salmonella virulence plasmid in the pathogenesis of animal and human hosts is discussed; including the possible relevance in secondary ecological niches. Various strategies towards further studies in this respect are proposed within the One Health Concept.

Tracking Recombination Events That Occur in Conjugative Virulence Plasmid p15WZ-82_Vir during the Transmission Process [PDF]
mSystems, 2020 We recently reported the recovery of a conjugative virulence plasmid, p15WZ-82_Vir, from a clinical Klebsiella variicola strain. In this study, we found that several new plasmid types were generated due to genetic rearrangement.

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2020 Background: Zoonotic Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis (S. Choleraesuis), causing paratyphoid in pigs and bacteremia in humans, commonly carry a virulence plasmid and sometimes a separate antimicrobial-resistant plasmid or merging together.

Co-occurrence of OXA-232, RmtF-encoding plasmids, and pLVPK-like virulence plasmid contributed to the generation of ST15-KL112 hypervirulent multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 The emergence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) strains and restricted therapeutic options pose a global threat to public health. Aminoglycosides are a wise choice, which can effectively reduce the mortality rate when combined with β ...

Emergence of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae ST111 with a novel virulence plasmid causing pyogenic liver abscess [PDF]
BMC MicrobiologyObjective Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp)–associated pyogenic liver abscess is most commonly linked to K1/K2 capsule serotypes and canonical lineages such as ST23, ST65, and ST86.

Acquisition of a large virulence plasmid (pINV) promoted temperature-dependent virulence and global dispersal of O96:H19 enteroinvasive <i>Escherichia coli</i>. [PDF]
mBio, 2023 Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC) and Shigella are closely related agents of bacillary dysentery. It is widely viewed that EIEC and Shigella species evolved from E.

A Siderophore-Encoding Plasmid Encodes High-Level Virulence in Escherichia coli
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 A plasmid that harbored the virulence factors highly like those of the virulence plasmid commonly found in clinical hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae strains was detected in a foodborne Escherichia coli strain EC1108 and designated p1108-IncFIB.

Transmission of pLVPK-like virulence plasmid in Klebsiella pneumoniae mediated by an Incl1 conjugative helper plasmid. [PDF]
iScience, 2022 We previously reported the recovery of five ST11 carbapenem resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-HvKP) strains that harbored pLVPK-like virulence plasmids, yet molecular mechanisms underlying acquisition of virulence plasmid by ST11 K ...

Colicin V virulence plasmids [PDF]
Microbiological Reviews, 1991 ColV plasmids are a heterogeneous group of IncFI plasmids which encode virulence-related properties such as the aerobactin iron uptake system, increased serum survival, and resistance to phagocytosis. These plasmids have been found in invasive strains of Escherichia coli which infect vertebrate hosts including humans and livestock.
