High Confidence Prediction of Essential Genes in Burkholderia Cenocepacia
BACKGROUND Essential genes are absolutely required for the survival of an organism. The identification of essential genes, besides being one of the most fundamental questions in biology, is also of interest for the emerging science of synthetic biology and for the development of novel antimicrobials. New antimicrobial therapies are desperately needed to treat multidrug-resistant pathogens, such...
متن کاملHost Evasion by Burkholderia cenocepacia
Burkholderia cenocepacia is an opportunistic respiratory pathogen of individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). Some strains of B. cenocepacia are highly transmissible and resistant to almost all antibiotics. Approximately one-third of B. cenocepacia infected CF patients go on to develop fatal "cepacia syndrome." During the last two decades, substantial progress has been made with regards to evasio...
متن کاملInactivation of macrophage Rab7 by Burkholderia cenocepacia.
Strains of the Burkholderia cepacia complex can survive within macrophages by arresting the maturation of phagocytic vacuoles. The bacteria preclude fusion of the phagosome with lysosomes by a process that is poorly understood. Using murine macrophages, we investigated the stage at which maturation is arrested and analyzed the underlying mechanism. Vacuoles containing B. cenocepacia strain J231...
متن کاملA rhizospheric Burkholderia cepacia complex population: genotypic and phenotypic diversity of Burkholderia cenocepacia and Burkholderia ambifaria.
The Burkholderia cepacia'complex' (Bcc) presently comprises nine species and genomovars. In order to acquire a better comprehension of the species and genomovar distribution and of the genetic diversity among environmental Bcc bacteria, a natural population of 60 bacterial isolates recovered from the rhizosphere of maize and belonging to the Bcc has been characterised to assess the exact taxono...
متن کاملParABS systems of the four replicons of Burkholderia cenocepacia: new chromosome centromeres confer partition specificity.
Most bacterial chromosomes carry an analogue of the parABS systems that govern plasmid partition, but their role in chromosome partition is ambiguous. parABS systems might be particularly important for orderly segregation of multipartite genomes, where their role may thus be easier to evaluate. We have characterized parABS systems in Burkholderia cenocepacia, whose genome comprises three chromo...
