چکیده

Genetic studies of Ochrobactrum anthropi are hindered by the lack of a suitable gene expression system. We constructed a set of vectors containing several promoters and a His tag fusion in the N terminus to facilitate protein detection and purification. The new vectors should significantly enhance the genetic manipulation and characterization of O. anthropi.

Molecular cloning, expression and site-directed mutagenesis of glutathione S-transferase from Ochrobactrum anthropi.

The gene coding for a novel glutathione S-transferase (GST) has been isolated from the bacterium Ochrobactrum anthropi. A PCR fragment of 230 bp was obtained using oligonucleotide primers deduced from N-terminal and 'internal' sequences of the purified enzyme. The gene was obtained by screening of a genomic DNA partial library from O. anthropi constructed in pBluescript with a PCR fragment prob...

A case of Ochrobactrum anthropi-induced septic shock and infective endocarditis.

Ochrobactrum anthropi is a gram-negative rod of low virulence. Infections due to this organism are uncommon; however in immunocompromised hosts it can cause severe infections. Among the many infections it can cause, infective endocarditis is very rare. Even rarer is infective endocarditis of the native valves, as Ochrobactrum antropi affects damaged or prosthetic valves almost exclusively. This...

Draft Genome Sequence of Ochrobactrum anthropi Strain W13P3, a Halotolerant Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacterium

Ochrobactrum anthropi W13P3 was isolated from saline soil contaminated by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and could degrade PAHs with 5% NaCl. We report the 5.3-Mb draft genome sequence of this strain, which is helpful for understanding the diversity of Ochrobactrum spp. and the mechanism of PAH degradation in saline environments.
