Comparative genomics identifies potential virulence factors in Clostridium tertium and C. paraputrificum
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2019)
Some well-known Clostridiales species such as Clostridium difficile and C. perfringens are agents of high impact diseases worldwide. Nevertheless, other foreseen Clostridiales species have recently emerged such as Clostridium ...
Draft Genome Sequences of 40 Pathogenic Leptospira Strains Isolated from Cattle in Uruguay
(AMER SOC MICROBIOLOGY, 2019)
Pathogenic Leptospira species represent a major concern for livestock but also for human health, as they cause zoonotic infections. Forty strains representing L. interrogans, L. borgpetersenii, and L. noguchii were isolated ...
Nanopore Sequencing Significantly Improves Genome Assembly of the Protozoan Parasite Trypanosoma cruzi
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2019)
Chagas disease was described by Carlos Chagas, who first identified the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi from a 2-year-old girl called Berenice. Many T. cruzi sequencing projects based on short reads have demonstrated that genome ...
Pathogenomics of Emerging Campylobacter Species
(AMER SOC MICROBIOLOGY, 2019)
Campylobacter is among the four main causes of gastroenteritis worldwide and has increased in both developed and developing countries over the last 10 years. The vast majority of reported Campylobacter infections are caused ...
The fecal, oral, and skin microbiota of children with Chagas disease treated with benznidazole
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2019)
Background Chagas disease is still prevalent in rural areas of South America. In endemic areas of Bolivia, school children are screened for the program of Chagas disease eradication of the Ministry of Health, and positive ...
Integrated genomic epidemiology and phenotypic profiling of Clostridium difficile across intra-hospital and community populations in Colombia
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019)
Clostridium difficile, the causal agent of antibiotic-associated diarrhea, has a complex epidemiology poorly studied in Latin America. We performed a robust genomic and phenotypic profiling of 53 C. difficile clinical ...
