Disease relevance of Pseudomonadaceae

• A total of 813 strains, belonging to the families Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonadaceae, were tested on MCP medium; all P. stuartii strains were phosphatase positive, as were 97.5% of Morganella morganii strains, in contrast with all other tested organisms [1].
• Cloning and nucleotide sequence of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa glucose-selective OprB porin gene and distribution of OprB within the family Pseudomonadaceae [2].
• Most nosocomial pneumonias are of an endogenous origin, particularly in mechanically ventilated patients, and this is associated with a higher rate of multiresistant methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Acinetobacter baumanii, Klebsiella pneumoniae with extended spectrum b-lactamases, and Pseudomonadaceae [3].

High impact information on Pseudomonadaceae

• Aspartate transcarbamoylase from Pseudomonadaceae is a class A enzyme consisting of six copies of a 36-kDa catalytic chain and six copies of a 45-kDa polypeptide of unknown function [4].
• A remarkable feature of the spectrum of SM-1652 is its high activity against Pseudomonadaceae [5].
• The number of resistant Pseudomonadaceae fell temporarily by 28%, paralleling gentamicin usage [6].
• Southern probing of PstI chromosomal digests of 14 species from the family Pseudomonadaceae revealed that only the nine members of rRNA homology group I hybridized with the oprF gene [7].
• The arginine biosynthesis genes in N. gonorrhoeae appear to be scattered as in members of the family Pseudomonadaceae [8].

Chemical compound and disease context of Pseudomonadaceae

• Variable enzymological patterning in tyrosine biosynthesis as a means of determining natural relatedness among the Pseudomonadaceae [9].
• Consequently, it was decided to continue employing timentin disks alone, rather than add ticarcillin disks in our Bauer-Kirby test battery for Pseudomonadaceae [10].
• Interestingly, the purified enzyme did not catalyze hydrolysis of its products, e.g., cephalexin, cephradine, and ampicillin, in contrast to enzymes from other strains of Pseudomonadaceae [11].
