Burkholderia thailandensis E125 harbors a temperate bacteriophage specific for Burkholderia mallei.
Burkholderia thailandensis is a nonpathogenic gram-negative bacillus that is closely related to Burkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei. We found that B. thailandensis E125 spontaneously produced a bacteriophage, termed phiE125, which formed turbid plaques in top agar containing B. mallei ATCC 23344. We examined the host range of phiE125 and found that it formed plaques on B. mallei b...
متن کاملSources of Diversity in Bactobolin Biosynthesis by Burkholderia thailandensis E264
A series of deletion mutants in the recently identified bactobolin biosynthetic pathway defined the roles of several key biosynthetic enzymes and showed how promiscuity in three enzyme systems allows this cluster to produce multiple products. Studies on the deletion mutants also led to four new bactobolin analogs that provide additional structure-activity relationships for this interesting anti...
متن کاملFK228 from Burkholderia thailandensis MSMB43
FK228 [systematic name: (1S,4S,7Z,10S,16E,21R)-7-ethyl-idene-4,21-di(propan-2-yl)-2-oxa-12,13-dithia-5,8,20,23-tetra-za--bicyclo[8.7.6]tricos-16-ene-3,6,9,19,22-pentone], C(24)H(36)N(4)O(6)S(2), also known as FR901228, depsipeptide, NSC 630176, romidepsin, and marketed as Istodax by Celgene Corporation, is crystallized from ethyl acetate in P2(1) as compared to the absolute configuration of FK2...
متن کاملVolatile-sulfur-compound profile distinguishes Burkholderia pseudomallei from Burkholderia thailandensis.
Solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GCMS) was used to show that dimethyl sulfide produced by Burkholderia pseudomallei is responsible for its unusual truffle-like smell and distinguishes the species from Burkholderia thailandensis. SPME-GCMS can be safely used to detect dimethyl sulfide produced by agar-grown B. pseudomallei.
متن کاملBurkholderia thailandensis Is Virulent in Drosophila melanogaster
Melioidosis is a serious infectious disease endemic to Southeast Asia and Northern Australia. This disease is caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei; Burkholderia thailandensis is a closely-related organism known to be avirulent in humans. B. thailandensis has not previously been used to infect Drosophila melanogaster. We examined the effect of B. thailandensis infectio...
