Expanding the Geographic Boundaries of Melioidosis in Queensland, Australia
This study suggests an association between climate change and an increased incidence of melioidosis. In addition, this is the first report of environmental sampling and whole-genome analysis to prove endemicity and local acquisition in this region.PMID:37160276 | DOI:10.4269/ajtmh.23-0002 (Source: Am J Trop Med Hyg)

A unique AA5 alcohol oxidase fused with a catalytically inactive CE3 domain from the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei
Copper radical oxidases (CROs) from Auxiliary Activities family 5 can oxidize various alcohol substrates. Bacterial CROs are less studied than eukaryotic enzymes. Here we have characterized an unusual bacterial CRO that acts only on primary alcohols and is fused to a carbohydrate esterase domain, which was completely inactive due to substitutions of key amino acid residues in the active site. Copper radical oxidases (CROs) are redox enzymes able to oxidize alcohols or aldehydes, while only requiring a single copper atom as cofactor. Studied CROs are found in one of two subfamilies within the Auxiliary Activities family 5 (...

Exploring Cefiderocol Resistance Mechanisms in Burkholderia pseudomallei
Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 2023 May 3:e0017123. doi: 10.1128/aac.00171-23. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCefiderocol is a siderophore cephalosporin designed mainly for treatment of infections caused by β-lactam and multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Burkholderia pseudomallei clinical isolates are usually highly cefiderocol susceptible, with in vitro resistance found in a few isolates. Resistance in clinical B. pseudomallei isolates from Australia is caused by a hitherto uncharacterized mechanism. We show that, like in other Gram-negatives, the PiuA outer membrane receptor plays a major role in cefiderocol nonsu...
