Burkholderia
MethodsCustom Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization–Time of Flight Mass Spectrometric Database for Identification of Environmental Isolates of the Genus Burkholderia and Related GeneraThe Gram-negative proteobacterial order Burkholderiales has emerged as a promising source of novel natural products in recent years. This order includes the genus Burkholderia and the newly defined genera Caballeronia and Paraburkholderia. However, development of this resource has been hampered by difficulties with rapid and selective isolation of Burkholderiales strains from the environment...
Genetics and Molecular BiologyPhenylacetyl Coenzyme A, Not Phenylacetic Acid, Attenuates CepIR-Regulated Virulence in Burkholderia cenocepaciaThe opportunistic pathogen Burkholderia cenocepacia uses a chemical signal process called quorum sensing (QS) to produce virulence factors. In B. cenocepacia, QS relies on the presence of the transcriptional regulator CepR which, upon binding QS signal molecules, activates virulence. In this work,...
