Characteristics and Outcome of Streptococcus pneumoniae Endocarditis in the XXI Century. A Systematic Review of 111 Cases (2000–2013)
(Wolters Kluwer, 2015)
Streptococcus pneumoniae is an infrequent cause of severe infectious endocarditis (IE). The aim of our study was to describe the epidemiology, clinical and microbiological characteristics, and outcome of a series of cases ...

The adaptors Grb10 and Grb14 are calmodulin-binding proteins
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017)
We identified the Grb7 family members, Grb10 and Grb14, as Ca2+-dependent CaM-binding proteins using Ca2+-dependent CaM-affinity chromatography as we previously did with Grb7. The potential CaM-binding sites were identified ...

Clinical Features of Infections and Colonization by Acinetobacter Genospecies 3
(American Society for Microbiology, 2010-12)
Two hundred twenty-one isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii and 15 of Acinetobacter genospecies 3 (AG3) were consecutively collected in a 30-day period during the nationwide project GEIH-Ab2000. Nosocomial acquisition (P = ...

Impaired Virulence and In Vivo Fitness of Colistin-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
(Oxford University Press, 2011-01-07)
Acinetobacter baumannii (American Type Culture Collection strain 19606) acquires mutations in the pmrB gene during the in vitro development of resistance to colistin. The colistin-resistant strain has lower affinity for ...

Prospective multicenter study of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae from 83 hospitals in Spain reveals high in vitro susceptibility to colistin and meropenem
(American Society for Microbiology, 2015-06-01)
The aim of this study was to determine the impact of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) in Spain in 2013 by describing the prevalence, dissemination, and geographic distribution of CPE clones, and their ...

Genome Sequence of Pantoea ananatis Strain AMG 501, a Plant Growth-Promoting Bacterium Isolated from Rice Leaves Grown in Paddies of Southern Spain
(American Society for Microbiology, 2017)
Pantoea ananatis AMG 501 is a plant growth-promoting bacterium isolated from rice leaves. Its genome was estimated at 5,102,640 bp with 4,994 coding sequences, encompassing genes related to the metabolism of carbohydrates, ...

Rice and bean AHL-mimic quorum-sensing signals specifically interfere with the capacity to form biofilms by plant-associated bacteria
(2013)
Many bacteria regulate their gene expression in response to changes in their population density in a process called quorum sensing (QS), which involves communication between cells mediated by small diffusible signal molecules ...

Hanks-Type Serine/Threonine Protein Kinases and Phosphatases in Bacteria: Roles in Signaling and Adaptation to Various Environments
(MDPI, 2018)
Reversible phosphorylation is a key mechanism that regulates many cellular processes in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, signal transduction includes two-component signaling systems, which involve a membrane ...

Effect of Statin Therapy in the Outcome of Bloodstream Infections Due to Staphylococcus aureus: A Prospective Cohort Study
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2013)
Introduction: Statins have pleiotropic effects that could influence the prevention and outcome of some infectious diseases. There is no information about their specific effect on Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia ...

Inhibitor-resistant TEM- And OXA-1-producing Escherichia coli isolates resistant to amoxicillin-clavulanate are more clonal and possess lower virulence gene content than susceptible clinical isolates
(American Society for Microbiology, 2014-01-01)
In a previous prospective multicenter study in Spain, we found that OXA-1 and inhibitor-resistant TEM (IRT) β-lactamases constitute the most common plasmid-borne mechanisms of genuine amoxicillin-clavulanate (AMC) resistance ...
