Fabclavine diversity in Xenorhabdus bacteria [PDF]

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2020
The global threat of multiresistant pathogens has to be answered by the development of novel antibiotics. Established antibiotic applications are often based on so-called secondary or specialized metabolites (SMs), identified in large screening ...

Genome Sequence Analysis of Native Xenorhabdus Strains Isolated from Entomopathogenic Nematodes in Argentina [PDF]

Toxins
Entomopathogenic nematodes from the genus Steinernema (Nematoda: Steinernematidae) are capable of causing the rapid killing of insect hosts, facilitated by their association with symbiotic Gram-negative bacteria in the genus Xenorhabdus (Enterobacterales:

Glucosinolate hydrolysis products suppress entomopathogenic nematodes in vitro but do not protect sequestering flea beetle larvae in vivo. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
The flea beetle's glucosinolate‐based chemical defense fails to protect larvae from nematode infection. However, the defense inhibits the nematode's symbiotic bacteria, thereby potentially impairing nematode reproduction and biocontrol success. Abstract BACKGROUND The efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the biological control of insect ...

Identification of novel prophage regions in Xenorhabdus nematophila genome and gene expression analysis during phage-like particle induction [PDF]

PeerJ, 2022
Background Entomopathogenic Xenorhabdus bacteria are endosymbionts of Steinernema nematodes and together they form an insecticidal mutualistic association that infects a wide range of insect species. Xenorhabdus produce an arsenal of toxins and secondary

High-Throughput Engineering and Modification of Non-Ribosomal Peptide Synthetases Based on Golden Gate Assembly. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
A Golden Gate Assembly (GGA)‐based method was developed for the efficient assembly of natural and engineered non‐ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS). This method has enabled the creation of NRPS libraries to generate novel peptides in high‐throughput as well as the targeted derivatisation of natural products (NPs).

Genome sequences of key bacterial symbionts of entomopathogenic nematodes: Xenorhabdus cabanillasii DSM17905, Xenorhabdus ehlersii DSM16337, Xenorhabdus japonica DSM16522, Xenorhabdus koppenhoeferii DSM18168, and Xenorhabdus mauleonii DSM17908. [PDF]

Microbiology resource announcements, 2023
Xenorhabdus species are bacterial symbionts of entomopathogenic Steinernema nematodes, in which they produce diverse secondary metabolites implicated in pathogenesis. To expand resources for natural product prospecting and exploration of host-symbiont-pathogen relationships, the genomes of Xenorhabdus cabanillasi, Xenorhabdus ehlersii, Xenorhabdus ...

Xenorhabdus bharatensis sp. nov., Xenorhabdus entomophaga sp. nov., Xenorhabdus siamensis sp. nov., and Xenorhabdus thailandensis sp. nov. Isolated from Steinernema Entomopathogenic Nematodes. [PDF]

Curr Microbiol
AbstractFour Gram-stain-negative bacterial strains, CS20T, AUT15.5T, XENO-11T, and CCN3.3T, isolated from Steinernema entomopathogenic nematodes, were found to represent novel species within the genus Xenorhabdus (Gammaproteobacteria, Morganellaceae).
