چکیده
We sequenced the complete genome of Francisella novicida DPG 3A-IS to closed and finished status. This is a warm spring isolate recovered from Hobo Warm Spring (Utah, USA). The final assembly is available in NCBI under accession number CP012037.

Molecular Evolutionary Consequences of Niche Restriction in Francisella tularensis, a Facultative Intracellular Pathogen
Francisella tularensis is a potent mammalian pathogen well adapted to intracellular habitats, whereas F. novicida and F. philomiragia are less virulent in mammals and appear to have less specialized lifecycles. We explored adaptations within the genus that may be linked to increased host association, as follows. First, we determined the genome sequence of F. tularensis subsp. mediasiatica, the ...
متن کاملFirst indication for a functional CRISPR/Cas system in Francisella tularensis.
Francisella tularensis is a zoonotic agent and the subspecies novicida is proposed to be a water-associated bacterium. The intracellular pathogen F. tularensis causes tularemia in humans and is known for its potential to be used as a biological threat. We analyzed the genome sequence of F. tularensis subsp. novicida U112 in silico for the presence of a putative functional CRISPR/Cas (clustered ...
متن کاملScreen of FDA-approved drug library identifies maprotiline, an antibiofilm and antivirulence compound with QseC sensor-kinase dependent activity in Francisella novicida.
Development of new therapeutics against Select Agents such as Francisella is critical preparation in the event of bioterrorism. Testing FDA-approved drugs for this purpose may yield new activities unrelated to their intended purpose and may hasten the discovery of new therapeutics. A library of 420 FDA-approved drugs was screened for antibiofilm activity against a model organism for human tular...
متن کاملGenetic dissection of the Francisella novicida restriction barrier.
Francisella tularensis is the causative agent of tularemia and is a category A select agent. Francisella novicida, considered by some to be one of four subspecies of F. tularensis, is used as a model in pathogenesis studies because it causes a disease similar to tularemia in rodents but is not harmful to humans. F. novicida exhibits a strong restriction barrier which reduces the transformation ...
متن کاملAttenuated virulence of a Francisella mutant lacking the lipid A 4'-phosphatase.
Francisella tularensis causes tularemia, a highly contagious disease of animals and humans, but the virulence features of F. tularensis are poorly defined. F. tularensis and the related mouse pathogen Francisella novicida synthesize unusual lipid A molecules lacking the 4'-monophosphate group typically found in the lipid A of Gram-negative bacteria. LpxF, a selective phosphatase located on the ...
