Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular characterisation of aureocin A70, a multi-peptide bacteriocin isolated from Staphylococcus aureus.
Daili Jacqueline Aguilar Netz,Daili Jacqueline Aguilar Netz,Hans-Georg Sahl,Rudy Marcolino,Janaína Santos Nascimento,Selma Soares de Oliveira,Marcelo B. Soares,Maria do Carmo de Freire Bastos,Maria do Carmo de Freire Bastos +8 more
TL;DR: Aureocin A70 is a multi-peptide non-lantibiotic bacteriocin, which is transported without processing, and four related peptides encoded by aurABCD operon are produced, expressed and excreted without post-translational modifications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial resistance in food and clinical Aeromonas isolates.
Angela Peres Palú,Luciana Martins Gomes,Marco Antônio Lemos Miguel,Ilana Teruzkin Balassiano,Mara Lucia Penna Queiroz,A.C. Freitas-Almeida,Selma Soares de Oliveira +6 more
TL;DR: Resistance to antimicrobial agents was observed in strains of both food and clinical origin and the tetracycline resistance phenotype determinant was related to the 15 kb plasmid according to cure and transformation experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activity of staphylococcal bacteriocins against Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae involved in bovine mastitis.
Marcus Lívio Varella Coelho,Janaína Santos Nascimento,Patrícia Carlin Fagundes,Danielle Jannuzzi Madureira,Selma Soares de Oliveira,Maria Aparecida Vasconcelos Paiva Brito,Maria do Carmo de Freire Bastos +6 more
TL;DR: The results show that the use of epidermin and/or a combination of aureocins A53 and A70 may represent a new non-antibiotic alternative for successfully inhibiting both mastitic staphylococci and streptococci.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial resistance and plasmid profiles of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli from human and animal sources
M.H.C. Aquino,M.H.C. Aquino,A.L.L. Filgueiras,M.C.S. Ferreira,Selma Soares de Oliveira,Maria do Carmo de Freire Bastos,A. Tibana +6 more
TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to determine the susceptibility of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylolobacter coli isolates to antimicrobial agents and to investigate the presence of plasmid DNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Miltefosine induces programmed cell death in Leishmania amazonensis promastigotes
Fernanda A. Marinho,Keyla C. S. Gonçalves,Selma Soares de Oliveira,Ana Carolina Oliveira,Maria Bellio,Claudia M. d’Avila-Levy,André L.S. Santos,Marta H. Branquinha +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that miltefosine causes apoptosis-like death in L. amazonensis promastigote cells using a similar process that is observed in Leishmania donovani.
