Characterization of Five Novel Brevibacillus Bacteriophages and Genomic Comparison of Brevibacillus Phages
Brevibacillus laterosporus is a spore-forming bacterium that causes a secondary infection in beehives following European Foulbrood disease. To better understand the contributions of Brevibacillus bacteriophages to the evolution of their hosts, five novel phages (Jenst, Osiris, Powder, SecTim467, and Sundance) were isolated and characterized. When compared with the five Brevibacillus phages curr...
متن کاملFight evolution with evolution: plasmid-dependent phages with a wide host range prevent the spread of antibiotic resistance
The emergence of pathogenic bacteria resistant to multiple antibiotics is a serious worldwide public health concern. Whenever antibiotics are applied, the genes encoding for antibiotic resistance are selected for within bacterial populations. This has led to the prevalence of conjugative plasmids that carry resistance genes and can transfer themselves between diverse bacterial groups. In this s...
متن کاملcis-Pt I2(NH3)2: a reappraisal.
The investigation of cis-PtI2(NH3)2, the diiodido analogue of cisplatin (cisPtI2 hereafter), has been unjustly overlooked so far mainly because of old claims of pharmacological inactivity. Some recent - but still fragmentary - findings prompted us to reconsider more systematically the chemical and biological profile of cisPtI2 in comparison with cisplatin. Its solution behaviour, interactions w...
متن کاملInsulin secretion stimulated by L-arginine and its metabolite L-ornithine depends on Gα(i2).
Bordetella pertussis toxin (PTx), also known as islet-activating protein, induces insulin secretion by ADP-ribosylation of inhibitory G proteins. PTx-induced insulin secretion may result either from inactivation of Gα(o) proteins or from combined inactivation of Gα(o), Gα(i1), Gα(i2), and Gα(i3) isoforms. However, the specific role of Gα(i2) in pancreatic β-cells still remains unknown. In globa...
متن کاملDistribution of shufflon among IncI plasmids.
A shufflon or clustered inversion is a novel type of DNA rearrangement originally discovered in the IncI1 plasmid R64 (T. Komano, A. Kubo, and T. Nisioka, Nucleic Acids Res. 15:1165-1172, 1987). In a 1.95-kilobase region of R64 DNA, four DNA segments inverted independently or in groups, resulting in a complex DNA rearrangement. We found similar types of shufflon in other IncI1 plasmids, includi...
