TL;DR: In this paper, a pan-susceptible Salmonella Typhimurium sequence type (ST)313 lineage (ST313 L3) was discovered in Malawi in 2016 and is closely related to ST313 variants that cause gastrointestinal disease in the United Kingdom and Brazil.
Posted ContentDOI
An accessible, efficient and global approach for the large-scale sequencing of bacterial genomes
Blanca M. Perez-Sepulveda,Darren Heavens,Caisey V. Pulford,Alexander V. Predeus,Ross Low,Hermione J. Webster,Christian Schudoma,Will P. M. Rowe,Will P. M. Rowe,J Lipscombe,Chris Watkins,Benjamin Kumwenda,Neil Shearer,Karl Costigan,Kate S. Baker,Nicholas A. Feasey,Jay C. D. Hinton,Neil Hall,Neil Hall +18 more
TL;DR: An efficient and inexpensive pipeline for streamlining large-scale collection and genome sequencing of bacterial isolates and can be applied to genome-sequence other large bacterial collections at a relatively low cost, within a limited timeframe, to support global collaborations.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of chicken and insect infection models to assess the virulence of African Salmonella Typhimurium ST313.
Lizeth Lacharme-Lora,Siân V. Owen,Siân V. Owen,R. Blundell,Rocío Canals,Nicolas Wenner,Blanca M. Perez-Sepulveda,Wai Yee Fong,Rachel Gilroy,Paul Wigley,Jay C. D. Hinton +10 more
TL;DR: These three infection models do not reproduce the characteristics of the systemic disease caused by S. Typhimurium ST313 in humans, according to a comprehensive analysis of all the chicken infection experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional Transcriptomics for Bacterial Gene Detectives.
TL;DR: The use of accessible online resources, such as SalComMac and SalComRegulon, are described, to visualize and analyze expression profiles of coding genes and small RNAs and show the value of preexisting transcriptomic data sets for hypothesis generation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spontaneous Deletion of an “ORFanage” Region Facilitates Host Adaptation in a “Photosynthetic” Cyanophage
Richard John Puxty,Blanca M. Perez-Sepulveda,Branko Rihtman,David J.A. Evans,Andrew D. Millard,David J. Scanlan +5 more
TL;DR: It is posited that these ORFs contribute to the flexible gene content of cyanophages and offer a distinct fitness advantage in freshwater and hypersaline environments.
