Ecological implications of gene regulation by TfoX and TfoY among diverse Vibrio species
Melanie Blokesch, Candice Stoudmann, Noémie Matthey, Lisa Christina Metzger, Esther Jeanne Collas
Bacteria of the genus Vibrio are common members of aquatic environments where they compete with other prokaryotes and defend themselves against grazing predators. A macromolecular protein complex called the type VI secretion system (T6SS) is used for both ...
2019Metabolomics of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) transformation: ratio of LinA to LinB determines metabolic fate of HCH isomers
Although the production and use of technical hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) and lindane (the purified insecticidal isomer -HCH) are prohibited in most countries, residual concentrations still constitute an immense environmental burden. Many studies describe t ...
Wiley-Blackwell2013Hydroclimatology of dual-peak annual cholera incidence: Insights from a spatially explicit model
Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Lorenzo Righetto, Marino Gatto
Cholera incidence in some regions of the Indian subcontinent may exhibit two annual peaks although the main environmental drivers that have been linked to the disease (e.g., sea surface temperature, zooplankton abundance, river discharge) peak once per yea ...
2012Colonization of the salivary glands of Naucoris cimicoides by Mycobacterium ulcerans requires host plasmatocytes and a macrolide toxin, mycolactone
Mycobacterium ulcerans was first identified as the causative agent of Buruli ulcer; this cutaneous tissue-destructive process represents the third most important mycobacterial disease in humans after tuberculosis and leprosy. More recently other life trait ...
2005Giant plasmid-encoded polyketide synthases produce the macrolide toxin of Mycobacterium ulcerans
Mycobacterium ulcerans (MU), an emerging human pathogen harbored by aquatic insects, is the causative agent of Buruli ulcer, a devastating skin disease rife throughout Central and West Africa. Mycolactone, an unusual macrolide with cytotoxic and immunosupp ...
2004Selective growth of mucolytic bacteria including Clostridium perfringens in a neonatal piglet model of total parenteral nutrition
BACKGROUND: Compromised barrier function and intestinal inflammation are common complications of total parenteral nutrition (TPN). OBJECTIVE: We tested the hypothesis that the lack of enteral nutrients in TPN might select commensal or pathogenic bacteria t ...
2002Impact de l'exploitation des alpages sur la qualité des eaux
Agricultural fertiliser (farmyard manure), covers partially the nutrient elements demand of the vegetation cover. However, its application is difficult as regards the unknown concentration of fertilising elements contained and their biological availability ...
