Complete genome sequence of bartonella bacilliformis strain KC584 (ATCC 35686)
(American Society for Microbiology, 2020)
Bartonella bacilliformis is the biological agent of Carrion's disease, a vector-borne, life-threatening human bartonellosis restricted to South America. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of B. bacilliformis KC584 ...
Description of Bartonella ancashensis sp. nov., isolated from the blood of two patients with verruga peruana
(Microbiology Society, 2015)
Three novel isolates of the genus Bartonella were recovered from the blood of two patients enrolled in a clinical trial for the treatment of chronic stage Bartonella bacilliformis infection (verruga peruana) in Caraz, ...
Pathogenomic Inference of Virulence-Associated Genes in Leptospira interrogans
(Public Library of Science, 2013)
Leptospirosis is a globally important, neglected zoonotic infection caused by spirochetes of the genus Leptospira. Since genetic transformation remains technically limited for pathogenic Leptospira, a systems biology ...
Recombination in pe/ppe genes contributes to genetic variation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis lineages
(BioMed Central, 2016)
BACKGROUND: Approximately 10% of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome is made up of two families of genes that are poorly characterized due to their high GC content and highly repetitive nature. The PE and PPE families ...
New insights in the DNA-[Cr(phen)2(dppz)]3+ binding and photocleavage properties by the complex with an intercalating ligand
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2010-07)
Due to the key role of DNA in cell life and pathological processes, the design of specific chemical nucleases, fic chemical nucleases, DNA probes and alkylating agents is an important research area for the development of ...
New insights into the regulatory mechanisms of ppGpp and DksA on Escherichia coli RNA polymerase-promoter complex
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
The stringent response modulators, guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) and protein DksA, bind RNA polymerase (RNAP) and regulate gene expression to adapt bacteria to different environmental conditions. Here, we use Atomic ...
Infection of Domestic Dogs in Peru by Zoonotic Bartonella Species: A Cross-Sectional Prevalence Study of 219 Asymptomatic Dogs
(Public Library of Science, 2013)
Bartonella species are emerging infectious organisms transmitted by arthropods capable of causing long-lasting infection in mammalian hosts. Among over 30 species described from four continents to date, 15 are known to ...
Bacterial genomic dna extraction: a comparison of commercial and in house methodsExtração de dna genômico bacteriano: uma comparação de métodos comerciais e in house

3D-printed modular microfluidic device enabling preconcentrating bacteria and purifying bacterial DNA in blood for improving the sensitivity of molecular diagnostics
(MDPI, 2020-02-21)
Molecular diagnostics for sepsis is still a challenge due to the presence of compounds that interfere with gene amplification and bacteria at concentrations lower than the limit of detection (LOD). Here, we report on the ...
