Tracing the environmental footprint of the <i>Burkholderia pseudomallei</i> lipopolysaccharide genotypes in the tropical “Top End” of the Northern Territory, Australia
2019-04-10
Abstract excerpt
The Tier 1 select agent Burkholderia pseudomallei is an environmental bacterium that causes melioidosis, a high mortality disease. Variably present genetic markers used to elucidate strain origin, relatedness and virulence in B. pseudomallei include the Burkholderia intracellular motility factor A ( bimA ) and filamentous hemagglutinin 3 ( fhaB3 ) gene variants. Three lipopolysaccharide (LPS) O-antigen types...
