Fig. 1. Genetic organization of the fim locus on the 43,492-bp pCYVD1b plasmid in Serratia ureilytica strain Z07. The fim genes are indicated only by a single letter. In addition to the fim locus, the fimB and N-truncated fimE genes and eight insertion sequence 3 (IS3) elements (black) are shown, along with a pseudogenized ninth IS3 element (gray). The gene shown with hatch marks is a transcriptional regulator. The plasmid GenBank accession number is CP166428.

Clinical and genomic characterization of Serratia bloodstream infections Previously considered a rare opportunistic pathogen, Serratia is now an emerging cause of bacteraemia. We compared the risk factors and outcomes of patients with Serratia bacteraemia relative to other...

📣 In a US cohort of >2500 #bacteremia patients, #Serratia marcescens was associated with persistent bacteremia and cardiac devices. Yet WGS showed genetic diversity of isolates: infections are not clonal.

U01.03.008 Catalase-positive organisms Read the passage carefully and fill in the missing terms in the blanks. Focus on the key pathophysiology of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD): identify the defective enzyme, the role of neutrophils, and which microbes pose a high infection risk. Use context clues from the sentence structure to drag each correct term into the appropriate box.

Understand catalase-positive organisms and their role in infections, especially in chronic granulomatous disease. #CatalasePositive #Microbiology #CGD #Immunology #Staphylococcus #Pseudomonas #Serratia #Nocardia #Aspergillus #USMLE #MedicalEducation #Pathogenesis #OxidativeBurst
