Analysis of Genome Sequences from Plant Pathogenic Rhodococcus Reveals Genetic Novelties in Virulence Loci
Members of Gram-positive Actinobacteria cause economically important diseases to plants. Within the Rhodococcus genus, some members can cause growth deformities and persist as pathogens on a wide range of host plants. The current model predicts that phytopathogenic isolates require a cluster of three loci present on a linear plasmid, with the fas operon central to virulence. The Fas proteins sy...
متن کاملIscR Is Essential for Yersinia pseudotuberculosis Type III Secretion and Virulence
Type III secretion systems (T3SS) are essential for virulence in dozens of pathogens, but are not required for growth outside the host. Therefore, the T3SS of many bacterial species are under tight regulatory control. To increase our understanding of the molecular mechanisms behind T3SS regulation, we performed a transposon screen to identify genes important for T3SS function in the food-borne ...
متن کاملDirectly and Indirectly Acting Cholinomimetics
Cholinomimetic drugs can elicit some or all of the effects that acetylcholine (ACh) produces. This class of drugs includes agents that act directly as agonists at cholinoreceptors and agents that act indirectly by inhibiting the enzymatic destruction of endogenous ACh (i.e., cholinesterase inhibitors).The directly acting cholinomimetics can be subdivided into agents that exert their effects pri...
متن کاملTumor necrosis factor alpha directly and indirectly regulates hematopoietic progenitor cell proliferation: role of colony-stimulating factor receptor modulation
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) has been shown to both stimulate and inhibit the proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) in vitro, but its mechanisms of action are not known. We demonstrate that the direct effects of TNF-alpha on murine bone marrow progenitors are only inhibitory and mediated at least in part through downmodulation of colony-stimulating factor receptor (C...
متن کاملComputational Bacterial Genome-Wide Analysis of Phylogenetic Profiles Reveals Potential Virulence Genes of Streptococcus agalactiae
The phylogenetic profile of a gene is a reflection of its evolutionary history and can be defined as the differential presence or absence of a gene in a set of reference genomes. It has been employed to facilitate the prediction of gene functions. However, the hypothesis that the application of this concept can also facilitate the discovery of bacterial virulence factors has not been fully exam...
