  • Computational Identification of the Proteins Associated with Quorum
    fmicb-10-03011 January 22, 2020 Time: 12:51 # 1 ORIGINAL RESEARCH published: 22 January 2020 doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2019.03011 Computational Identification of the Proteins Associated With Quorum Sensing and Biofilm Formation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Shubhada R. Hegde* Institute of Bioinformatics and Applied Biotechnology, Bengaluru, India With prolonged therapy and increased instances of drug resistance, tuberculosis is viewed as a serious infectious disease causing high mortality. Emerging concepts in Mycobacterium tuberculosis pathogenicity include biofilm formation, which endows bacterial survival in the host for a long time. To tackle chronic tuberculosis infection, a detailed understanding of the bacterial survival mechanisms is crucial. Using comparative genomics and literature mining, 115 M. tuberculosis proteins were shortlisted for their likely association with biofilm formation or quorum sensing. These include essential genes such as secA2, lpqY-sugABC, Rv1176c, and Rv0195, many of which are also known virulence factors. Furthermore, the functional relationship among these proteins was established by considering known protein-protein interactions, Edited by: regulatory interactions, and gene expression correlation data/information. Graph Rachel Susan Poretsky, centrality and motif analyses predicted the importance of proteins, such as Rv0081, University of Illinois at Chicago, United States DevR, RegX3, Rv0097, and Rv1996 in M. tuberculosis biofilm formation. Analysis Reviewed by: of conservation across other biofilm-forming bacteria suggests that most of these Seyed Ehtesham Hasnain, genes are conserved in mycobacteria.

  • Glossery of Tb Terms Acid-Fast Bacilli- (Afb)
    GLOSSERY OF TB TERMS ACID-FAST BACILLI - (AFB) Bacteria which retain certain dyes even when washed with an acid solution. Only rarely are acid-fast bacteria which are seen on smear not mycobacteria. A presumptive diagnosis of tuberculosis is often made on the basis of a positive “AFB smear;” however, the diagnosis is not confirmed until a culture is grown and identified as M. tuberculosis . ACQUIRED DRUG RESISTANCE - Resistance to one or more antituberculous drugs which develops while a patient is on therapy, usually the result of erratic compliance on the part of the patient. ADVERSE REACTIONS - Any undesirable effect of a medication. All drugs may cause such reactions, so that periodic monitoring of tuberculous patients under treatment is necessary to detect any that do occur, even though their occurrence may be common. ALVEOLI - The small air sacs in the lungs which lie at the end of the bronchial tree. The site of gas exchange in the lungs, and the site where tuberculous infection usually begins. ANEMIA - A condition in which there is a decreased volume of red cells in the blood. There are many causes for anemia, including chronic infections such as untreated tuberculosis. ANOREXIA - Loss of appetite. Symptom frequently seen in many illnesses, including tuberculosis. ATTENUATED - Refers to the weakened ability of an infectious agent to cause disease . For example, BCG is an attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis . BACTERICIDAL - Capable of killing bacteria. Isoniazid and rifampin are the two most potent bactericidal antituberculous drugs. BACTERIOLOGICAL SPECIMEN - Refers to any body fluid, secretion, or tissue sent to the laboratory where smears and cultures for tubercle bacilli will be performed.

This group compr ise s less than one hundred isolates characterized by smooth colonies and cordless organisms. Most STB isolates have been obtained from patients expo sed to the Republic of Djibouti but seven isolates, including the three seminal ones obtained by Georges Canetti between 1968 and 1970, were recovered from patients in France, Madagascar, Sub-Sahara East Africa and French Polynesia. STB form a genetically heterogeneous group of MT BC organisms with large 4.48 ± 0.05 Mb genomes which may link Mycobacterium kansasii to MTBC organisms. Lack of inter-human transmission suggested a yet unknown environmental reservoir .

  • Developing Methodologies for the Investigation of Free-Living Amoeba As a Tool for Pathogen Surveillance on Dairy Farms and Aquaculture
    Developing Methodologies for the Investigation of Free-living Amoeba as a Tool for Pathogen Surveillance on Dairy Farms and Aquaculture by John McLean A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Molecular and Cellular Biology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © John McLean, April, 2014 ABSTRACT DEVELOPING METHODOLOGIES FOR THE INVESTIGATION OF FREE-LIVING AMOEBA AS A TOOL FOR PATHOGEN SURVEILLANCE ON DAIRY FARMS AND FISHERIES John M. McLean Advisor: University of Guelph, 2014 Dr. Lucy Mutharia Free-living amoeba are phagocytic protozoans that act as environmental reservoirs, a protective niche, and a vehicle for transmission for amoeba-resistant bacterial pathogens. Many amoeba-resistant bacteria have been identified using only laboratory-adapted Acanthamoeba. We isolated resident amoeba from target environments of dairy farms and aquaculture settings to evaluate their use as a pathogen detection tool. Amoeba were only isolated from 3 of 23 (13%) environmental samples using established methods. A two-step sample decontamination protocol was developed and led to the isolation of 14 additional amoeba. An amoeba co-culture method was developed to assess the survival of 12 mycobacterial species within environmental and laboratory-adapted amoeba. Major strain differences were observed at the amoeba level which had drastic effects on the survival of different bacterial species within individual amoeba. Targeted isolation of resident bacteria from soils and feces using amoebal enrichment protocols were unsuccessful. However, the methodologies developed in this study provide a valid technical starting point for future studies. Acknowledgments First and foremost I would like to thank my advisor, Dr.

Received: February 08, 2020; Published: May 04, 2020 Abstract Tuberculosis is one of the major health problems responsible for morbidity and mortality particularly in developing countries. It is a bacterial disease caused by a group of closely related species of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex such as M. tuberculosis, Mycobacterium Canetti, Mycobacterium Africanum, Mycobacterium microti, M. bovis, Mycobacterium caprae and Mycobacterium pinnipedii have genetic similarity. The Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Complex (MTBC) species are closely related taxonomic group of bacteria contributing to hundred-percent chromosomal homology between each other. The genome of MTBC is about 4.4 M bp and contains 0.01-0.3 percent synonymic nucleotide polymorphisms. It is characterized by 99.9% similarity at the nucleotide level and from a common origin through DNA deletion and insertion mechanisms which resulted in the present Mycobacterium species. These identical 16S rRNA sequences but differs widely in host related tropisms, phenotypes, and pathogenicity. MBTC strains have emerged insertion –deletion in the variable region of genomes or region of difference (RD) of the MBTC is used to identify the phylogenetic RD or evolutionary lineages of M. africanum, M. microti and M. bovis that diverged from the progenitor of the present M.
