Chemical and Metabolic Aspects of Antimetabolite Toxins Produced by Pseudomonas syringae Pathovars
(MDPI, 2011-09-03)Pseudomonas syringae is a phytopathogenic bacterium present in a wide variety of host plants where it causes diseases with economic impact. The symptoms produced by Pseudomonas syringae include chlorosis and necrosis of ... -
Genes Involved in the Production of Antimetabolite Toxins by Pseudomonas syringae Pathovars.
(MDPI, 2011-09-15)Pseudomonas syringae is pathogenic in a wide variety of plants, causing diseases with economic impacts. Pseudomonas syringae pathovars produce several toxins that can function as virulence factors and contribute to disease ... -
Environmentally friendly treatment alternatives to Bordeaux mixture for controlling bacterial apical necrosis (BAN) of mango.
(British Society for Plant Pathology, 2011-11-22)Bacterial apical necrosis (BAN), caused by the bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae (Pss), is currently the most limiting disease affecting the mango crop in the Mediterranean area. The copper-based compound Bordeaux ... -
Diversity of culturable halophilic archaea isolated from Rambla Salada, Murcia (Spain).
(Springer Nature, 2012-01-05)We have studied the diversity of culturable halophilic Archaea at Rambla Salada, Murcia (south-eastern Spain). We made 8 samplings at different places in this habitat during the years 2006 and 2007 and isolated a total of ... -
Characterisation of the mgo operon in Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae UMAF0158 that is required for mangotoxin production.
(BMC, 2012-01-17)Background: Mangotoxin is an antimetabolite toxin that is produced by strains of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae; mangotoxin-producing strains are primarily isolated from mango tissues with symptoms of bacterial ... -
Metabolic stasis in an ancient symbiosis: genome-scale metabolic networks from two Blattabacterium cuenoti strains, primary endosymbionts of cockroaches
(Springer Nature, 2012-01-18)Cockroaches are terrestrial insects that strikingly eliminate waste nitrogen as ammonia instead of uric acid. Blattabacterium cuenoti strains Bge and Pam are the obligate primary endosymbionts of the cockroaches Blattella ... -
The mbo operon is specific and essential for biosynthesis of mangotoxin in Pseudomonas syringae.
(PLOS, 2012-05-17)Mangotoxin is an antimetabolite toxin produced by certain Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae strains. This toxin is an oligopeptide that inhibits ornithine N-acetyl transferase, a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of ornithine ... -
Recruitment and Rearrangement of Three Different Genetic Determinants into a Conjugative Plasmid Increase Copper Resistance in Pseudomonas syringae.
(American Society of Microbiology, 2013)We describe the genetic organization of a copper-resistant plasmid containing copG and cusCBA genes in the plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae. Chromosomal variants of czcCBA and a plasmid variant of cusCBA were present ... -
The Mangotoxin Biosynthetic Operon (mbo) Is Specifically Distributed within Pseudomonas syringae Genomospecies 1 and Was Acquired Only Once during Evolution.
(ASM Journals, 2013-01-14)Mangotoxin production was first described in Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae strains. A phenotypic characterization of 94 P. syringae strains was carried out to determine the genetic evolution of the mangotoxin biosynthetic ... -
High incidence of antibiotic multi-resistant bacteria in coastal areas dedicated to fish farming
(Elsevier, 2013-05-15)Marine bacteria exposed to antibiotics in fish farms can acquire antimicrobial resistance by mobile genetic elements and horizontal gene transfer. A total of 872 autochthonous marine bacterial strains was isolated from ... -
Extinction of hepatitis C virus by ribavirin in hepatoma cells involves lethal mutagenesis
(PLOS One, 2013-08)Lethal mutagenesis, or virus extinction produced by enhanced mutation rates, is under investigation as an antiviral strategy that aims at counteracting the adaptive capacity of viral quasispecies, and avoiding selection ... -
A Pseudomonas syringae diversity survey reveals a differentiated phylotype of the pathovar syringae associated with the mango host and mangotoxin production.
(The American Phytopathological Society, 2013-10-08)Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae, the causal agent of bacterial apical necrosis (BAN) in mango crops, has been isolated in different mango-producing areas worldwide. An extensive collection of 87 P. syringae pv. syringae ... -
Interspecies signalling: Pseudomonas putida efflux pump TtgGHI is activated by indole to increase antibiotic resistance
(Wiley, 2013-12-14)In Gram-negative bacteria, multidrug efflux pumps are responsible for the extrusion of chemicals that are deleterious for growth. Some of these efflux pumps are induced by endogenously produced effectors, while abiotic or ... -
Draft whole-genome sequence of the antibiotic-producing soil isolate Pseudomonas sp. strain 250J
(Wiley, 2014)Bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas are becoming increasing well known for their ability to produce a wide range of antimicrobial compounds. In a largescale screening for antibiotic producers, we identified a soil isolate ... -
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus envelope protein ion channel activity promotes virus fitness and pathogenesis
