[HTML][HTML] The neglected intrinsic resistome of bacterial pathogens

…, N Martínez-Martín, M Mercadillo, JC Galán, B Ghysels… - PloS one, 2008 - journals.plos.org
Bacteria with intrinsic resistance to antibiotics are a worrisome health problem. It is widely
believed that intrinsic antibiotic resistance of bacterial pathogens is mainly the consequence of …

Characterization of a new efflux pump, MexGHI-OpmD, from Pseudomonas aeruginosa that confers resistance to vanadium

S Aendekerk, B Ghysels, P Cornelis… - Microbiology, 2002 - microbiologyresearch.org
Vanadium has an antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, especially under
conditions of iron limitation. Some degree of resistance to V is inducible by prior exposure to …

A type II NAD(P)H dehydrogenase mediates light-independent plastoquinone reduction in the chloroplast of Chlamydomonas

…, PA Houyoux, P Cardol, B Ghysels… - Proceedings of the …, 2008 - National Acad Sciences
In photosynthetic eukaryotes, nonphotochemical plastoquinone (PQ) reduction is important
for the regulation of photosynthetic electron flow. In green microalgae where this process has …

Control of Hydrogen Photoproduction by the Proton Gradient Generated by Cyclic Electron Flow in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

D Tolleter, B Ghysels, J Alric, D Petroutsos… - The Plant …, 2011 - academic.oup.com
Hydrogen photoproduction by eukaryotic microalgae results from a connection between the
photosynthetic electron transport chain and a plastidial hydrogenase. Algal H 2 production is …

FpvB, an alternative type I ferripyoverdine receptor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

B Ghysels, BTM Dieu, SA Beatson, JP Pirnay… - …, 2004 - microbiologyresearch.org
Under conditions of iron limitation, Pseudomonas aeruginosa secretes a high-affinity
siderophore pyoverdine to scavenge Fe(III) in the extracellular environment and shuttle it into the …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa displays an epidemic population structure

…, A Vanderkelen, M Zizi, B Ghysels… - Environmental …, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
Bacteria can have population structures ranging from the fully sexual to the highly clonal.
Despite numerous studies, the population structure of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is still …

The Pseudomonas aeruginosa pirA gene encodes a second receptor for ferrienterobactin and synthetic catecholate analogues

B Ghysels, U Ochsner, U Möllman… - FEMS microbiology …, 2005 - academic.oup.com
Actively secreted iron chelating agents termed siderophores play an important role in the
virulence and rhizosphere competence of fluorescent pseudomonads, including Pseudomonas …

Identification of type II and type III pyoverdine receptors from Pseudomonas aeruginosa

M De Chial, B Ghysels, SA Beatson… - …, 2003 - microbiologyresearch.org
Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces, under conditions of iron limitation, a high-affinity
siderophore, pyoverdine (PVD), which is recognized at the level of the outer membrane by a …

[HTML][HTML] Function of the Chloroplast Hydrogenase in the Microalga Chlamydomonas: The Role of Hydrogenase and State Transitions during Photosynthetic Activation …

B Ghysels, D Godaux, RF Matagne, P Cardol, F Franck - PloS one, 2013 - journals.plos.org
Like a majority of photosynthetic microorganisms, the green unicellular alga Chlamydomonas
reinhardtii may encounter O 2 deprived conditions on a regular basis. In response to …

Distribution and evolution of ferripyoverdine receptors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

J Bodilis, B Ghysels, J Osayande… - Environmental …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a ubiquitous Gram‐negative bacterium, which is also able to
cause severe opportunistic infections in humans. The colonization of the host is importantly …
