Whole-Genome Sequencing and Biosynthetic Gene Cluster Analysis of Novel Entomopathogenic Bacteria Xenorhabdus thailandensis ALN 7.1 and ALN 11.5 [PDF]
Xenorhabdus species are entomopathogenic bacteria that live in symbiosis with Steinernema nematodes and produce a wide range of bioactive secondary metabolites. This study aimed to characterize the complete genomes and biosynthetic potential of two novel

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

Molluscicidal property of symbiotic bacteria associated with entomopathogenic nematodes against Indoplanorbis exustus and Radix rubiginosa, the intermediate hosts of trematode parasites [PDF]
Indoplanorbis exustus and Radix rubiginosa act as intermediate hosts for veterinary and medical trematode parasites. Snail control is a strategy used to decrease the number of snails and interrupt the life cycle of parasites.

XopA: a novel type III secretion system effector in Xenorhabdus that modulates host cell responses through apoptosis, autophagy, and immune evasion [PDF]
The type III secretion system (T3SS) of bacterial pathogens plays an essential role in infection and colonization processes. T3S effectors (T3SEs) are pivotal in mediating these interactions and their mechanisms of action.

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

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

Lysogeny and bacteriocinogeny in Xenorhabdus nematophilus and other Xenorhabdus spp [PDF]
Induction by mitomycin or high-temperature treatment resulted in the production of bacteriocins and phages in both phases of Xenorhabdus nematophilus A24, indicating lysogeny. Phage DNA purified from X. nematophilus A24 hybridized to several fragments of DraI-digested A24 chromosomal DNA, confirming that the phage genome was incorporated into the ...

Transformation of Xenorhabdus nematophilus [PDF]
The ability of Xenorhabdus nematophilus 19061/1 to be transformed by pHK17 plasmid DNA was studied and optimized. A number of factors, including culture conditions, stage of growth, transformation buffer pH, cation type and concentration required for the production of competency, washing, heat shock conditions, and cell-DNA ratio, were found to affect ...
