A Staphylococcus xylosus isolate with a new mecC allotype.
Recently, a novel variant of mecA known as mecC (mecA(LGA251)) was identified in Staphylococcus aureus isolates from both humans and animals. In this study, we identified a Staphylococcus xylosus isolate that harbors a new allotype of the mecC gene, mecC1. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that mecC1 forms part of a class E mec complex (mecI-mecR1-mecC1-blaZ) located at the orfX locus as part of...
متن کاملGenomic diversity in Staphylococcus xylosus.
Staphylococcus xylosus is a commensal of the skin of humans and animals and a ubiquitous bacterium naturally present in food. It is one of the major starter cultures used for meat fermentation, but a few strains could potentially be hazardous and are related to animal opportunistic infections. To better understand the genetic diversity of S. xylosus intraspecies, suppressive and subtractive hyb...
متن کاملCharacterization of a sucrase gene from Staphylococcus xylosus.
The Staphylococcus xylosus gene scrB, encoding a sucrase, has been isolated from a genomic library of S. xylosus constructed in Escherichia coli. The gene was detected by its ability to confer utilization of the glucose and fructose residues of raffinose in an E. coli strain that is not able to metabolize galactose. It was found to reside within a 1.8-kb DNA fragment, the nucleotide sequence of...
متن کاملAcute pyelonephritis caused by Staphylococcus xylosus.
Staphylococcus xylosus was recovered from the urine of a patient with pyelonephritis. Antibodies against the teichoic acid of the microorganism were demonstrated in the patient's serum by the agar gel diffusion technique.
متن کاملImproving the Safety of Staphylococcus aureus Polyvalent Phages by Their Production on a Staphylococcus xylosus Strain
Team1 (vB_SauM_Team1) is a polyvalent staphylococcal phage belonging to the Myoviridae family. Phage Team1 was propagated on a Staphylococcus aureus strain and a non-pathogenic Staphylococcus xylosus strain used in industrial meat fermentation. The two Team1 preparations were compared with respect to their microbiological and genomic properties. The burst sizes, latent periods, and host ranges ...
