Project description:Acinetobacter ursingii has not been reported in infectious processes apart from its recent description as a new species. A bacteremia caused by A. ursingii in a patient with a pulmonary adenocarcinoma confirms that this microorganism is an opportunistic human pathogen. The isolate was susceptible to imipenem, aminoglycosides, rifampin, and fluoroquinolones.
Project description:Two Acinetobacter baumannii strains with low susceptibility to fosmidomycin and two reference with high susceptibility to fosmidomycin were DNA-sequenced to investigate the genomic determinants of fosmidomycin resistance.
Project description:We performed RNAseq for gene expression analysis for six strains of Acinetobacter Baumannii isolated from blood samples (defined as strains 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6) of patients hospitalized at the University Hospital \\"San Giovanni di Dio e Ruggi d'Aragona\\" (Salerno, Italy)
Project description:The goal of this RNA-Seq study was to determine Acinetobacter baumannii's transcriptiional response to sub-MIC concentrations of benzalkonium chloride in Acinetobacter baumannii. This RNA-seq data was then utilized to aide in the determination of the sub-MIC mechanism of action for benzalkonium chloride.
Project description:Studies of expression of mechanims of defense of the Acinetobacter sp.5-2Ac.02 from airborne hospital environment under stress conditions, such as SOS response (ROS response, heavy metals resistant mechanisms, peptides), as well as Quorum network (acetoin cluster and aromatics biodegradation cluster). Characterization functional of AcoN-like as negative regulator protein from acetoin cluster in Acinetobacter spp. Strains
Project description:We analyzed the extracellular proteome of colistin-resistant Korean Acinetobacter baumannii (KAB) strains to identify proteome profiles that can be used to characterize extensively drug-resistant KAB strains.
Project description:The experiment contains native Tn-seq data for Acinetobacter baumannii strain AB5075 with different genetic alterations. The strain was grown at 37 degrees in LB medium and genomic DNA was isolated. We then used PCR to select for DNA regions containing a junction between ISAba13 and chromosomal DNA. Libraries were then prepared using these DNA fragments.
