Comparative transcriptomics of pathogenic and non-pathogenic Listeria species
Listeria monocytogenes is a human, food-borne pathogen. Genomic comparisons between L. monocytogenes and Listeria innocua, a closely related non-pathogenic species, were pivotal in the identification of protein-coding genes essential for virulence. However, no comprehensive comparison has focused on the non-coding genome. We used strand-specific cDNA sequencing to produce genome-wide transcript...
متن کاملChemical Composition and Antimicrobial Effect of Five Essential Oils on Pathogenic and Non-Pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus
Background and Objectives: Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the causative agent of gastroenteritis due to consumption of contaminated seafood. The aim of the present study was to determine the chemical composition of Essential Oils (EOs) of five plants (Artemisia absinthium, Zataria multiflora Boiss., Pulicaria gnaphalodes, Trachyspermum ammi and Cuminum cyminum) and to evaluate their antimicrobial a...
متن کاملPore-forming peptide of pathogenic Entamoeba histolytica.
A polypeptide that causes pore formation in target-cell membranes is implicated in the potent cytolytic activity of pathogenic Entamoeba histolytica. Pore-forming material was purified to apparent homogeneity by a multistep procedure, and its analysis by NaDodSO4/PAGE revealed one peptide of 4-5 kDa under nonreducing or under reducing conditions. Pore-forming activity was measured by depolariza...
متن کاملLEGER: knowledge database and visualization tool for comparative genomics of pathogenic and non-pathogenic Listeria species
Listeria species are ubiquitous in the environment and often contaminate foods because they grow under conditions used for food preservation. Listeria monocytogenes, the human and animal pathogen, causes Listeriosis, an infection with a high mortality rate in risk groups such as immune-compromised individuals. Furthermore, L.monocytogenes is a model organism for the study of intracellular bacte...
متن کاملInsight of Genus Corynebacterium: Ascertaining the Role of Pathogenic and Non-pathogenic Species
This review gathers recent information about genomic and transcriptomic studies in the Corynebacterium genus, exploring, for example, prediction of pathogenicity islands and stress response in different pathogenic and non-pathogenic species. In addition, is described several phylogeny studies to Corynebacterium, exploring since the identification of species until biological speciation in one sp...
