The underlying process of early ecological and genetic differentiation in a facultative mutualistic Sinorhizobium meliloti population
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
The question of how genotypic and ecological units arise and spread in natural microbial populations remains controversial in the field of evolutionary biology. Here, we investigated the early stages of ecological and ...

Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 invades lotus burttii by crack entry in a nod factor- and surface polysaccharide-dependent manner
(American Phytopathological Society, 2016)
Sinorhizobium fredii HH103-Rifr, a broad host range rhizobial strain, induces nitrogen-fixing nodules in Lotus burttii but ineffective nodules in L. japonicus. Confocal microscopy studies showed that Mesorhizobium loti ...

Emerging therapies for multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
(Cell Press, 2013-03)
The global emergence of multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii has reduced the number of clinically available antibiotics that retain activity against this pathogen. For this reason, the development of novel prevention ...

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 ...
