    The Conjugative Relaxase TrwC Promotes Integration of Foreign DNA in the Human Genome.
    Appl Environ Microbiol 2017 06 31;83(12). Epub 2017 May 31.
    Departamento de Biología Molecular and Instituto de Biomedicina y Biotecnología de Cantabria (IBBTEC), Universidad de Cantabria-CSIC-SODERCAN, Santander, Spain
    Bacterial conjugation is a mechanism of horizontal DNA transfer. The relaxase TrwC of the conjugative plasmid R388 cleaves one strand of the transferred DNA at the gene, covalently attaches to it, and leads the single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) into the recipient cell. In addition, TrwC catalyzes site-specific integration of the transferred DNA into its target sequence present in the genome of the recipient bacterium. Read More

    Despite the publication of a number of case reports since the 1950s, physician awareness of the unique relationship between cat scratch disease (CSD) and acute encephalopathy remains limited. This report alerts emergency medicine physicians to include CSD encephalopathy (CSDE) in the differential diagnosis when a previously healthy child presents with status epilepticus. Prompt recognition of this relationship impacts the selection of initial diagnostic studies and antibiotic choices and permits reliable insight into prognosis. Read More

    The ongoing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection epidemic coupled with more efficacious and available treatments has led to a larger number of patients living with HIV or AIDS. As a result, skin manifestations related to HIV/AIDS or its therapy have become increasingly more common and are reported to occur in as many as 95% of patients. Herein, we review the most common HIV/AIDS related cutaneous pathologies and classify them into inflammatory, HAART-associated, neoplastic, and infectious manifestations. Read More

    Bartonella henselae (BH) is the main cause of cat scratch disease (CSD), which more typically presents as a self-limited localized suppurative lymphadenopathy in immunocompetent individuals. In contrast, immunocompromised patients commonly have systemic disease with life-threatening complications. In addition to the angioproliferative lesions, such as bacillary angiomatosis, an increasing number of immune post-infectious complications are being recognized with BH infections, including glomerulonephritis, vasculitis, hemophagocytic syndrome, and neurological problems.
