The Complete Genome and Proteome of Mycoplasma mobile (2004)

Jaffe, Jacob D., Stange-Thomann, Nicole, Smith, Cherylyn, DeCaprio, David, Fisher, Sheila, Butler, Jonathan, ...

Although often considered “minimal” organisms, mycoplasmas show a wide range of diversity with respect to host environment, phenotypic traits, and pathogenicity. Here we report the complete...

Comparative Genomic Characterization of Francisella tularensis Strains Belonging to Low and High Virulence Subspecies

Champion, Mia D., Zeng, Qiandong, Nix, Eli B., Nano, Francis E., Keim, Paul, Kodira, Chinnappa D., ...

Tularemia is a geographically widespread, severely debilitating, and occasionally lethal disease in humans. It is caused by infection by a gram-negative bacterium, Francisella tularensis. In order to...

Genomic Analysis of the Basal Lineage Fungus Rhizopus oryzae Reveals a Whole-Genome Duplication

Ma, Li-Jun, Ibrahim, Ashraf S., Skory, Christopher, Grabherr, Manfred G., Burger, Gertraud, Butler, Margi, ...

Rhizopus oryzae is the primary cause of mucormycosis, an emerging, life-threatening infection characterized by rapid angioinvasive growth with an overall mortality rate that exceeds 50%. As a...

Comparative genomic analyses of the human fungal pathogens Coccidioides and their relatives

Sharpton, Thomas J., Stajich, Jason E., Rounsley, Steven D., Gardner, Malcolm J., Wortman, Jennifer R., Jordar, Vinita S., ...

While most Ascomycetes tend to associate principally with plants, the dimorphic fungi Coccidioides immitis and Coccidioides posadasii are primary pathogens of immunocompetent mammals, including...
