The regulon of Brucella abortus two- component system BvrR/BvrS reveals the coordination of metabolic pathways required for intracellular life
(PLOS ONE, 2022-09-21)
Brucella abortus is a facultative intracellular pathogen causing a severe zoonotic disease
worldwide. The two-component regulatory system (TCS) BvrR/BvrS of B. abortus is con-
served in members of the Alphaproteobacteria ...
Brucella evolution and taxonomy
(Elsevier Science B.V, 2002)
The genus Brucella contains alpha-Proteobacteria adapted to intracellular life within cells of a variety of mammals. Controversy has arisen concerning Brucella internal taxonomy, and it has been proposed that the DNA–DNA ...
Pathogenicity and its implications in Taxonomy: The Brucella and Ochrobactrum Case
(MDPI, 2022)
The intracellular pathogens of the genus Brucella are phylogenetically close to Ochrobac-
trum, a diverse group of free-living bacteria with a few species occasionally infecting medically
compromised patients. A group ...
A bvrR/bvrS Non-Polar Brucella abortus Mutant Confirms the Role of the Two-Component System BvrR/BvrS in Virulence and Membrane Integrity
(MDPI, 2023-08-05)
Brucella abortus is a bacterial pathogen causing bovine brucellosis worldwide. This facultative extracellular–intracellular pathogen can be transmitted to humans, leading to a zoonotic disease.
The disease remains a public ...
If You're Not Confused, You're Not Paying Attention: Ochrobactrum Is Not Brucella
(American Society for Microbiology, 2023-07-03)
Bacteria of the genus Brucella are facultative intracellular parasites that cause brucellosis, a severe animal and human disease. Recently, a group of taxonomists merged the brucellae with the primarily free-living, ...
