Journal ArticleDOI

Brucella abortus and Its Closest Phylogenetic Relative, Ochrobactrum spp., Differ in Outer Membrane Permeability and Cationic Peptide Resistance

TL;DR: Results show that although Ochrobactrum and Brucella share a basic OM pattern, subtle modifications in LPS core cause markedly different OM properties, possibly reflecting the adaptive evolution of B. abortus to pathogenicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurobrucellosis in Stranded Dolphins, Costa Rica

TL;DR: Ten striped dolphins, Stenella coeruleoalba, stranded along the Costa Rican Pacific coast, had meningoencephalitis and antibodies against Brucella spp.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of Brucella virulence by the two-component system BvrR/BvrS.

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the Brucella BvrR/BvrS is a system devoted to the homeostasis of the outer membrane and, therefore in the interface for cell invasion and mounting the required structures for intracellular parasitism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of Brucella abortus and Brucella melitensis native haptens as outer membrane O-type polysaccharides independent from the smooth lipopolysaccharide.

TL;DR: A model in which LPS-independent O-type polysaccharides (NH) are intertwined with the O chain in the outer membrane of S-type brucellae is suggested and reconstituted by using purified NH and LPS.
