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 ...

Shared use of mineral supplement in extensive farming and its potential for infection transmission at the wildlife-livestock interface
(Springer, 2021)
Recently, the survival of Mycobacterium bovis on livestock mineral blocks has been confrmed, but little is known about its implication in the transmission of animal tuberculosis (TB) under feld conditions. The objective ...

Accumulation of Poly(beta-Hydroxybutyrate) by Halobacteria
(American Society for Microbiology, 1986)
Some species of extremely halophilic archaebacteria, Halobacteriaceae, have been shown to accumulate large amounts of poly(P-hydroxybutyrate) under conditions of nitrogen limitation and abundant carbon source. The production ...

European multicenter study of the LIAISON automated diagnostic system for determination of Toxoplasma gondii-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgM and the IgG avidity index
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005)
The LIAISON system is a fully automated system based on chemiluminescence and antigen bound to magnetic microparticles. The system allows fast and precise measurement of Toxoplasma-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgM ...

The Terminal Extensions of Dbp7 Influence Growth and 60S Ribosomal Subunit Biogenesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Ribosome synthesis is a complex process that involves a large set of protein trans-acting factors, among them DEx(D/H)-box helicases. These are enzymes that carry out remodelling activities onto RNAs by hydrolysing ATP. ...

Effect of Glycerol on Fosfomycin Activity against Escherichia coli
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022)
Fosfomycin is an antimicrobial that inhibits the biosynthesis of peptidoglycan by entering the bacteria through two channels (UhpT and GlpT). Glycerol is clinically used as a treatment for elevated intracranial pressure ...

Interplay Among Different Fosfomycin Resistance Mechanisms in Klebsiella Pneumoniae
(American Society for Microbiology, 2021)
The objectives of this study were to characterize the role of the uhpT, glpT, and fosA genes in fosfomycin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae and evaluate the use of sodium phosphonoformate (PPF) in combination with ...
