The reach of the genome signature in prokaryotes (2006)
Van Passel, Mark WJ, Kuramae, Eiko E, Luyf, Angela CM, Bart, Aldert, Boekhout, Teun
Abstract Background With the increased availability of sequenced genomes there have been several initiatives to infer evolutionary relationships by whole genome characteristics. One of these studies...
Compositional discordance between prokaryotic plasmids and host chromosomes (2006)
Van Passel, Mark WJ, Bart, Aldert, Luyf, Angela CM, Van Kampen, Antoine HC, Van Der Ende, Arie
Abstract Background Most plasmids depend on the host replication machinery and possess partitioning genes. These properties confine plasmids to a limited range of hosts, yielding a close and...

Van Der Ende, Arie, Pan, Zhi-Jun, Bart, Aldert, Feller, Monique, Xiao, Shu-dong, ...
Bart, Aldert, Pannekoek, Yvonne, Dankert, Jacob, Van Der Ende, Arie
Neisseria meningitidis is a gram-negative bacterium that may cause meningitis, sepsis, or both. The increase in the incidence of meningococcal disease in various countries in the past 2 decades is...
Bart, Aldert, Schuurman, Ilse G. A., Achtman, Mark, Caugant, Dominique A., Dankert, Jacob, Van Der Ende, Arie
Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) genotyping was applied to one representative strain of each of the 84 electrophoretic types (ETs) of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A previously defined by...
cagA-Positive Helicobacter pylori Populations in China and The Netherlands Are Distinct
Van Der Ende, Arie, Pan, Zhi-Jun, Bart, Aldert, Feller, Monique, Xiao, Shu-Dong, ...
The aim of this research was to study whether and to what extent Chinese cagA-positive Helicobacter pylori isolates differ from those in The Netherlands. Analysis of random amplified polymorphic DNA...
A Helicobacter pylori TolC Efflux Pump Confers Resistance to Metronidazole
Van Amsterdam, Karin, Bart, Aldert, Van Der Ende, Arie
In Helicobacter pylori, the contribution of efflux proteins to antibiotic resistance is not well established. As translocases that act in parallel may have overlapping substrate specificities, the...

Al Naiemi, Nashwan, Schipper, Kim, Duim, Birgitta, Bart, Aldert
Nucleotide sequencing is the standard molecular method for determination of the β-lactamase gene present in an isolate. Using minimal sequence quality values prevents misidentification of blaSHV...

Plasmid Diversity in Neisseriae†
Van Der Ende, Arie, Bart, Aldert
Horizontal gene transfer constitutes an important force in prokaryotic genome evolution, and it is well-known that plasmids are vehicles for DNA transfer. Chromosomal DNA is frequently exchanged...
