Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli O157 H7 and Campylobacter are the major bacterial pathogens associated with foodborne diseases and their inactivation is fundamental to ensure microbiologically safe products.
Here, we report the crystal structures of four bacterial deformylases, free or bound to the naturally occurring antibiotic actinonin, including two from the major bacterial pathogens Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.
M. abscessus has a four-gene cluster very similar to a locus encoding an ABC Fe(3+) transporter in Rhodococcus sp. This cluster also has closely related homologs in a number of major bacterial pathogens, including Salmonella sp. and Burkholderia sp. (Tables 2 and S4; Fig. 3D).
Although MLST has been principally used to study the major bacterial pathogens, several recent MLST schemes have been developed for lactic acid bacteria (LAB), the most important group of microorganisms used for food processing, including the species Lactobacillus plantarum [9], Lactobacillus casei [10], [11], Oenococcus oeni [12], and Streptococcus thermophilus [13].
For example, major bacterial pathogens (staphylococci, streptococci, enterococci, mycoplasmas, etc).
Infection with major bacterial pathogens often leads to chronic asymptomatic inflammation, which persists throughout the animal's life [ 6, 7].
Staphylococcus aureus is both a major bacterial pathogen as well as a common member of the human skin microbiota.
The team reconstructed the genome of a major bacterial pathogen and recovered some of the first evidence of food molecules from ancient dental plaque.
Haemophilus influenzae is a major bacterial pathogen causing RTIs.
Streptococcus pneumoniae is the major bacterial pathogen associated with influenza in 1918 Spanish pandemic [ 9, 11- 13].
S. aureus is a major bacterial pathogen responsible for both healthcare and community-associated infections [ 1].
