Complete Genome Sequences of the Potential Zoonotic Pathogens Staphylococcus felis and Staphylococcus kloosii.

ABSTRACT: Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are opportunistic pathogens frequently encountered in nosocomial infections. Animal-associated CoNS pose a zoonotic risk and constitute a potential reservoir for virulence and antimicrobial resistance genes. To improve our knowledge of animal-associated CoNS, we sequenced the complete genomes of Staphylococcus felis (ATCC 49168) and Staphylococcus kloosii (ATCC 43959).

Genome sequences of the zoonotic pathogens Chlamydia psittaci 6BC and Cal10.

Project description:Chlamydia psittaci is a highly prevalent avian pathogen and the cause of a potentially lethal zoonosis, causing life-threatening pneumonia in humans. We report the genome sequences of C. psittaci 6BC, the prototype strain of the species, and C. psittaci Cal10, a widely used laboratory strain.

Complete Genome Sequences of Two Novel Staphylococcus aureus Podoviruses of Potential Therapeutic Use, vB_SauP_phiAGO1.3 and vB_SauP_phiAGO1.9.

Project description:Here, we report the genome sequences of two Staphylococcus aureus phages belonging to the family Podoviridae and subfamily Picovirinae, vB_SauP_phiAGO1.3 and vB_SauP_phiAGO1.9, which were isolated from Warsaw sewage. Analysis of their genomes provides valuable information about the diversity of phages belonging to the genus Rosenblumvirus and their genes that undergo evolutionary adaptation to cells of different host strains.

Potential zoonotic pathogens hosted by endangered bonobos.

Project description:Few publications, often limited to one specific pathogen, have studied bonobos (Pan paniscus), our closest living relatives, as possible reservoirs of certain human infectious agents. Here, 91 stool samples from semicaptive bonobos and bonobos reintroduced in the wild, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, were screened for different infectious agents: viruses, bacteria and parasites. We showed the presence of potentially zoonotic viral, bacterial or parasitic agents in stool samples, sometimes coinfecting the same individuals. A high prevalence of Human mastadenoviruses (HAdV-C, HAdV-B, HAdV-E) was observed. Encephalomyocarditis viruses were identified in semicaptive bonobos, although identified genotypes were different from those identified in the previous fatal myocarditis epidemic at the same site in 2009. Non-pallidum Treponema spp. including symbiotic T. succinifaciens, T. berlinense and several potential new species with unknown pathogenicity were identified. We detected DNA of non-tuberculosis Mycobacterium spp., Acinetobacter spp., Salmonella spp. as well as pathogenic Leptospira interrogans. Zoonotic parasites such as Taenia solium and Strongyloides stercoralis were predominantly present in wild bonobos, while Giardia lamblia was found only in bonobos in contact with humans, suggesting a possible exchange. One third of bonobos carried Oesophagostomum spp., particularly zoonotic O. stephanostomum and O. bifurcum-like species, as well as other uncharacterized Nematoda. Trypanosoma theileri has been identified in semicaptive bonobos. Pathogens typically known to be transmitted sexually were not identified. We present here the results of a reasonably-sized screening study detecting DNA/RNA sequence evidence of potentially pathogenic viruses and microorganisms in bonobo based on a noninvasive sampling method (feces) and focused PCR diagnostics.

Project description:Staphylococcus epidermidis is an opportunistic pathogen that commonly colonizes human skin and mucous membranes. We report here the complete genome sequences of three S. epidermidis phages, Quidividi, Terranova, and Twillingate, which are members of the Twort-like group of large myophages infecting Gram-positive hosts.

Complete Genome Sequences of Staphylococcus argenteus TWCC 58113, Which Bears Two Plasmids.

Project description:Staphylococcus argenteus TWCC 58113 was isolated from a specimen from a 12-year-old boy with purulent lymphadenitis. The S. argenteus TWCC 58113 genome was completely sequenced. The TWCC 58113 chromosome was 2,761,442?bp in size with a GC content of 32.44%. S. argenteus TWCC 58113 was found to harbor two plasmids.

Complete Genome Sequences of Gram-Positive Opportunistic Pathogens Isolated from Hospitals in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

Project description:The appearance of drug-resistant pathogens reduces the therapeutic applicability of antibiotics and increases the rate of hospital infections among patients. Complete genome sequences of four Gram-positive clinical isolates of Streptococcus and Staphylococcus were obtained and analyzed to serve as model microorganisms for further studies on drug-induced antibiotic resistance reversion.

Complete Genome Sequences of Gram-Negative Opportunistic Pathogens Isolated in Hospitals in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

Project description:The problem of nosocomial infections is growing due to the introduction of new treatment regimens involving immunosuppressive drugs. The genomes of seven Gram-negative clinical isolates of Escherichia, Klebsiella, and Pseudomonas were sequenced and analyzed in this study to serve as model microorganisms to study drug-induced antibiotic resistance reversion.

Complete Genome Sequences of Two Staphylococcus saccharolyticus Strains Isolated from Prosthetic Joint Infections.

Project description:Staphylococcus saccharolyticus is a human skin bacterium and is occasionally associated with prosthetic joint infections (PJIs). Here, we report the complete genome sequences of two strains that were isolated from shoulder and hip PJIs. The genomes show signs of reductive evolution; around 21% of all coding sequences are inactivated by frameshift mutations.
