Complete Nucleotide Sequence Analysis of Plasmids in Strains of Staphylococcus aureus Clone USA300 Reveals a High Level of Identity among Isolates with Closely Related Core Genome Sequences
Adam D. Kennedy,Stephen F. Porcella,Craig Martens,Adeline R. Whitney,Kevin R. Braughton,Liang Chen,Carly T. Craig,Fred C. Tenover,Barry N. Kreiswirth,James M. Musser,Frank R. DeLeo +10 more
TL;DR: The high level of plasmid sequence identity among the majority of closely related USA300 isolates is consistent with the recent clonal emergence hypothesis for USA300.
Mycobacterium bovis BCG Immunization Induces Protective Immunity against Nine Different Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains in Mice
Bo Young Jeon,Steven C. Derrick,JaeHyun Lim,Kristopher Kolibab,Veerabadran Dheenadhayalan,Amy Li Yang,Barry N. Kreiswirth,Sheldon L. Morris +7 more
TL;DR: Data demonstrate that BCG vaccination protects against infection with diverse M. tuberculosis strains in the mouse model of pulmonary tuberculosis and suggest that strain-specific resistance to BCG-induced protective immunity may be uncommon.
698. Nacubactam Inhibits Class A β-lactamases
Melissa D. Barnes,Caryn E. Good,Saralee Bajaksouzian,Saralee Bajaksouzian,Magdalena A. Taracila,David van Duin,Barry N. Kreiswirth,Michael R. Jacobs,Michael R. Jacobs,Krisztina M. Papp-Wallace,Robert A. Bonomo +10 more
TL;DR: The effectiveness of meropenem-nacubactam against Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical strains is determined and the structure–function relationships are elucidated to elucidate the structure-function relationships.
Multiplex PCR Analysis for Rapid Detection of Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenem-Resistant (Sequence Type 258 [ST258] and ST11) and Hypervirulent (ST23, ST65, ST86, and ST375) Strains.
Fangyou Yu,Fangyou Yu,Jingnan Lv,Siqiang Niu,Hong Du,Yi-Wei Tang,Yi-Wei Tang,Johann D. D. Pitout,Robert A. Bonomo,Barry N. Kreiswirth,Liang Chen +10 more
TL;DR: A rapid multiplex PCR assay capable of distinguishing K. pneumoniae carbapenem-resistant isolates of sequence type 258 (ST258) and ST11, and hypervirulent ST23, ST65/ST375, and ST86 clones, as well as capsular types K1, K2, K locus type 47 (KL47), and KL64, and virulence genes rmpA, rmpB, iutA, and iroN is developed
