Phenotypic and Genome-Wide Analysis of an Antibiotic-Resistant Small Colony Variant (SCV) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
BACKGROUND Small colony variants (SCVs) are slow-growing bacteria, which often show increased resistance to antibiotics and cause latent or recurrent infections. It is therefore important to understand the mechanisms at the basis of this phenotypic switch. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS One SCV (termed PAO-SCV) was isolated, showing high resistance to gentamicin and to the cephalosporine cefo...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Phage-Resistant Variant PA1RG
Bacteria have evolved several defense systems against phage predation. Here, we report the 6,500,439-bp complete genome sequence of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage-resistant variant PA1RG. Single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing and de novo assembly revealed a single contig with 320-fold sequence coverage.
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Highly Adherent Pseudomonas aeruginosa Small-Colony Variant SCV20265
The evolution of small-colony variants within Pseudomonas aeruginosa populations chronically infecting the cystic fibrosis lung is one example of the emergence of adapted subpopulations. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of the autoaggregative and hyperpiliated P. aeruginosa small-colony variant SCV20265, which was isolated from a cystic fibrosis (CF) patient.
متن کاملGenome-wide identification of novel small RNAs in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Bacterial small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) function in post-transcriptional control of gene expression and control a variety of processes including metabolic reactions, stress responses and pathogenesis in response to environmental signals. A variety of approaches have been used previously to identify 44 sRNAs in the opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In this work, RNA sequencing...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of the Small-Colony Variant Pseudomonas aeruginosa MH27, Isolated from a Chronic Urethral Catheter Infection
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a notable nosocomial pathogen causing severe chronic infections. Here we present the draft genome sequence of P. aeruginosa MH27, isolated from a patient with a chronic hospital-acquired catheter-associated urinary tract infection. The 7.1-Mb genome sequence organized in 24 scaffolds contributes to the understanding of biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance.
