Comparison of the sequenced genomes of two other especially dangerous pathogens, Burkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei, did not reveal operons or biochemical systems unique to B. mallei [27]. Thus, there is no evidence of gain of function acquired through HGT, which may increase the virulence or fitness of B. mallei in... [Pg.114]

In the example shown in Fig. 6, the Phylogenetic Profiler is used to find genes from a Burkholderia mallei strain that have no homologs in a Burkholderia pseudomallei strain. Similarity cutoffs can be used to fine-tune the selection. The list of genes with the specified profile is then provided as a selectable list as shown in Fig. 6. [Pg.47]

Burkholderia mallei is an organism that is associated with infections in laboratory workers becau.se so very few organisms are required to cause disease. The organism has been considered as a potential agent for biological warfare and of biological terrorism. [Pg.106]

The disease is diagnosed in the laboratory by isolating Burkholderia mallei from blood, sputum, urine, or skin lesions. Serologic assays are not available. [Pg.107]

Because human cases of glanders are rare, there is limited information about antibiotic treaiment of the organism in humans. Sulfadiazine has been found to be an effective in experimental animals and in humans. Burkholderia mallei is usually sensitive to tetracyclines, ciprofloxacin, streptomycin, novobiocin, gentamicin, imipenem, cettrazidime, and the sulfonamides. Resistance to chloramphenicol has been reported. [Pg.108]
