| 528 | 1 | 0.5172 | Effect of dimethyl sulphoxide on the expression of nitrogen fixation in bacteria. Storage in dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) of Escherichia coli K12 hybrids carrying nif+ genes from Klebsiella pneumoniae can result in selection of a defective nitrogen-fixing phenotype. Similar results are obtained with E. coli K12 hybrids containing the nitrogen-fixing capacity from Rhizobium trifolii. DMSO appears to affect particular inner membrane proteins associated with energy metabolism in E. coli K12 and four chromosomal regions (chlD, chlG, his and unc) are associated with resistance to DMSO. | 1977 | 332135 |
| 822 | 2 | 0.5102 | Exoglucanase-encoding genes from three Wickerhamomyces anomalus killer strains isolated from olive brine. Wickerhamomyces anomalus killer strains are important for fighting pathogenic yeasts and for controlling harmful yeasts and bacteria in the food industry. Targeted disruption of key genes in β-glucan synthesis of a sensitive Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain conferred resistance to the toxins of W. anomalus strains BS91, BCA15 and BCU24 isolated from olive brine. Competitive inhibition of the killing activities by laminarin and pustulan refer to β-1,3- and β-1,6-glucans as the main primary toxin targets. The extracellular exoglucanase-encoding genes WaEXG1 and WaEXG2 from the three strains were sequenced and were found to display noticeable similarities to those from known potent W. anomalus killer strains. | 2013 | 23148020 |
| 5204 | 3 | 0.5063 | Draft genome sequencing of a multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain MBBL2 isolated from mastitic cow milk. Milk from cows with mastitis is a primary source of bacteria harboring antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), including Klebsiella pneumoniae. We present the genome sequence of K. pneumoniae strain MBBL2 isolated from mastitic cow milk, which contains numerous ARGs and virulence-associated genes potentially pathogenic to humans. | 2025 | 39878535 |
| 823 | 4 | 0.5051 | Characterization of the prtA and prtB genes of Erwinia chrysanthemi EC16. Two tandem metalloprotease-encoding structural genes, prtA and prtB, were sequenced from Erwinia chrysanthemi EC16. These were highly homologous to previously reported genes from the same bacteria, as well as to three other metalloprotease-encoding genes from enteric bacteria. The three tandem prt structural genes from strain EC16 were closely linked to a cluster of genes previously found to be essential for extracellular secretion of the metalloproteases. | 1993 | 8224883 |
| 6133 | 5 | 0.5048 | Comparative genomic study of three species within the genus Ornithinibacillus, reflecting the adaption to different habitats. In the present study, we report the whole genome sequences of two species, Ornithinibacillus contaminans DSM22953(T) isolated from human blood and Ornithinibacillus californiensis DSM 16628(T) isolated from marine sediment, in genus Ornithinibacillus. Comparative genomic study of the two species was conducted together with their close relative Ornithinibacillus scapharcae TW25(T), a putative pathogenic bacteria isolated from dead ark clam. The comparisons showed O. contaminans DSM22953(T) had the smallest genome size of the three species indicating that it has a relatively more stable habitat. More stress response and heavy metal resistance genes were found in the genome of O. californiensis DSM 16628(T) reflecting its adaption to the complex marine environment. O. scapharcae TW25(T) contained more antibiotic resistance genes and virus factors in the genome than the other two species, which revealed its pathogen potential. | 2016 | 26706221 |

These isolates include Bacillus paranthracis RIT 841, Atlantibacter hermanii RIT 842, Pantoea leporis RIT 844, Enterococcus casseliflavus RIT 845, and Pseudomonas alkylphenolica RIT 846, underscoring the importance of understanding antimicrobial resistance. | 2024 | 39189722 |
| 6789 | 7 | 0.5027 | Metagenomic insights on promoting the removal of resistome in aerobic composting pig manure by lightly burned modified magnesite. The antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have become a serious issue facing public health. In this study, light-burned magnesite with a high specific surface area at 650 °C (MS650) was used for aerobic composting, evaluating its effect on the resistome during pig manure composting. Different concentrations of MS650 reduced the abundance of the resistome, including seven high-risk ARGs, class two metal and biocide resistance genes (MBRGs), and human pathogenic bacteria (HPBs). The addition of 2.5 % MS650 (L1) in the composting had the best reduction effect on ARGs, MBRGs and HPBs. ARG and microbial community assembly are deterministic processes. Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria was the main factor associated with the decrease in ARGs, followed by virulence factor genes (VFGs, 44.2 %). The reduction in MBRGs by MS650 mainly suppressed HGT by reducing the Isfinder abundance. To summarize, MS650 is an effective method to improve emission reduction of ARGs and MBRGs. This study provided a theoretical basis for improving the engineering application potential of MS650. | 2024 | 39490844 |
| 532 | 8 | 0.5027 | Three new dominant drug resistance cassettes for gene disruption in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Disruption-deletion cassettes are powerful tools used to study gene function in many organisms, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Perhaps the most widely useful of these are the heterologous dominant drug resistance cassettes, which use antibiotic resistance genes from bacteria and fungi as selectable markers. We have created three new dominant drug resistance cassettes by replacing the kanamycin resistance (kan(r)) open reading frame from the kanMX3 and kanMX4 disruption-deletion cassettes (Wach et al., 1994) with open reading frames conferring resistance to the antibiotics hygromycin B (hph), nourseothricin (nat) and bialaphos (pat). The new cassettes, pAG25 (natMX4), pAG29 (patMX4), pAG31 (patMX3), pAG32 (hphMX4), pAG34 (hphMX3) and pAG35 (natMX3), are cloned into pFA6, and so are in all other respects identical to pFA6-kanMX3 and pFA6-kanMX4. Most tools and techniques used with the kanMX plasmids can also be used with the hph, nat and patMX containing plasmids. These new heterologous dominant drug resistance cassettes have unique antibiotic resistance phenotypes and do not affect growth when inserted into the ho locus. These attributes make the cassettes ideally suited for creating S. cerevisiae strains with multiple mutations within a single strain. | 1999 | 10514571 |
| 527 | 9 | 0.5010 | Characterization of the bagremycin biosynthetic gene cluster in Streptomyces sp. Tü 4128. Bagremycin A and bagremycin B isolated from Streptomyces sp. Tü 4128 have activities against Gram-positive bacteria, fungi and also have a weak antitumor activity, which make them have great potential for development of novel antibiotics. Here, we report a draft genome 8,424,112 bp in length of S. sp. Tü 4128 by Illumina Hiseq2000, and identify the bagremycins biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) by bioinformatics analysis. The putative bagremycins BGC includes 16 open reading frames (ORFs) with the functions of biosynthesis, resistance and regulation. Disruptions of relative genes and HPLC analysis of bagremycins production demonstrated that not all the genes within the BGC are responsible for the biosynthesis of bagremycins. In addition, the biosynthetic pathways of bagremycins are proposed for deeper inquiries into their intriguing biosynthetic mechanism. | 2019 | 30526412 |
| 6722 | 10 | 0.5004 | Studies on the bacterial permeability of non-woven fabrics and cotton fabrics. The permeability of cotton and non-woven fabrics to bacteria, air and water was studied. Non-woven fabrics, even when wet, showed low resistance to air, and high resistance to permeation of water and bacteria. Water-repellent cotton fabrics were resistant to permeation of water, air and bacteria, but these properties decreased on washing. Non-water-repellent cotton fabrics were poor bacterial barriers even when new. | 1986 | 2873172 |
| 507 | 11 | 0.5002 | Tellurite resistance and reduction by obligately aerobic photosynthetic bacteria. Seven species of obligately aerobic photosynthetic bacteria of the genera Erythromicrobium, Erythrobacter, and Roseococcus demonstrated high-level resistance to tellurite and accumulation of metallic tellurium crystals. High-level resistance without tellurite reduction was observed for Roseococcus thiosulfatophilus and Erythromicrobium ezovicum grown with certain organic carbon sources, implying that tellurite reduction is not essential to confer tellurite resistance. | 1996 | 16535446 |

| 5205 | 15 | 0.4992 | Antimicrobial resistance and virulence factors of Klebsiella quasipneumoniae, the novel sequence types (ST) 7979 and 7980 from Indonesia. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a human pathogen of global concern. The more recently described pathogen, K. quasipneumoniae, shares similar morphological characteristics with K. pneumoniae and is commonly misidentified as this species using conventional laboratory techniques. This study investigates the molecular characteristics of four phenotype-identified K. pneumoniae isolates obtained from hospital wastewater in Jakarta, Indonesia. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and the Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) showed that these isolates were eventually identified as K. quasipneumoniae subsp. quasipneumoniae, a closely related species of K. pneumoniae. These isolates of novel ST7979 and ST7980 strains are classified as multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria and harbor many antibiotic-resistance genes. Interestingly, the novel ST7980 strain is carbapenem non-susceptible and harbors the sul1 gene and the heat-stable enterotoxin gene, astA. The ST7979 strains have KL55 capsular type and O3b type, whereas the ST7980 strains have KL107 and O12 types. Our finding highlights the significance of identifying the K. quasipneumoniae strain utilizing a genomic platform. Additionally, routine surveillance is needed to monitor the hospital wastewater and avoid the spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria. | 2025 | 40609771 |
| 2491 | 16 | 0.4990 | Baicalein Inhibits Plasmid-Mediated Horizontal Transmission of the blaKPC Multidrug Resistance Gene from Klebsiella pneumoniae to Escherichia coli. Carbapenem-resistant bacterial infections pose an urgent threat to public health worldwide. Horizontal transmission of the β-lacatamase Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (blaKPC) multidrug resistance gene is a major mechanism for global dissemination of carbapenem resistance. Here, we investigated the effects of baicalein, an active ingredient of a Chinese herbal medicine, on plasmid-mediated horizontal transmission of blaKPC from a meropenem-resistant K. pneumoniae strain (JZ2157) to a meropenem-sensitive Escherichia coli strain (E600). Baicalein showed no direct effects on the growth of JZ2157 or E600. Co-cultivation of JZ2157 and E600 caused the spread of meropenem resistance from JZ2157 to E600. Baicalein at 40 and 400 µg/mL significantly inhibited the spread of meropenem resistance. Co-cultivation also resulted in plasmid-mediated transmission of blaKPC from JZ2157 to E600, which was inhibited by baicalein. Therefore, baicalein may be used in clinical practice to prevent or contain outbreaks of carbapenem-resistant infections by inhibiting the horizontal transfer of resistance genes across bacteria species. | 2023 | 36543225 |
| 6130 | 17 | 0.4989 | Characterization of the virulence, growth temperature and antibiotic resistance of the Campylobacter jejuni IAL 2383 strain isolated from humans. The objective of this study was to characterize the C. jejuni IAL2383 strain isolated from humans in Brazil. Transcripts for the racR, dnaJ and ciaB genes were found and flaA, plda and cadF genes were present in the genome and bacteria was sensitive to most of the important antimicrobials used to treat humans. C. jejuni IAL2383 is a good experimental model to analyze the interactions with cells. | 2014 | 24948944 |
