“…Several studies have reported that the percentage of agar is an essential stimulus for swimming motility after cell differentiation. Some bacteria can display swimming motility at agar concentrations as low as 0.3 % or less (Andrade et al, 2002;Giron, 1995;Tercero-Alburo et al, 2014). In the present study, the KpBUAP021 strain demonstrated swimming motility in 0.25 % agar notwithstanding that K. pneumoniae has been reported as a non-motile bacterium.…”

The genus Klebsiella belongs to the family Enterobacteriaceae, and is currently considered to be non-motile and non-flagellated. In the present work, 25 Klebsiella strains isolated from nosocomial infections were assessed for motility under different growth conditions. One Klebsiella isolate, KpBUAP021, demonstrated a swim-like motility phenotype. The K. pneumoniae genotype was confirmed by 16S rRNA and rpoB gene sequence analysis. Multilocus sequence typing analysis also revealed that the KpBUAP021 strain places it in the ST345 sequence type, and belongs to the phylogenetic Kpl group. Transmission electron microscopy and the Ryu staining technique revealed that KpBUAP021 expresses polar flagella. Finally, the presence of fliC, fliA and flgH genes in this K. pneumoniae strain was confirmed. This report presents the first evidence for flagella-mediated motility in a K. pneumoniae clinical isolate, and represents an important finding related to its evolution and pathogenic potential.

“…V. mimicus is a widely distributed aquatic bacterium that can cause disease in humans and massive death of aquatic animals. It is a foodborne pathogen [2], which can cause gastroenteritis, diarrhea and food poisoning [3][4][5]. V. mimicus infecting was also common in aquaculture (can infect shrimp, crab, and fish) [6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

2020)Complete genome analysis of Vibriomimicus strain SCCF01, a highly virulent isolate from the freshwater catfish, Virulence, 11:1, 23-31, ABSTRACT Vibrio mimicus is a foodborne pathogen, which is widely distributed in the aquatic environment. Moreover, it is often involved in aquatic animal diseases. In recent years, V. mimicus is an emerging pathogen in some species of Siluriformes. The strain SCCF01 was isolated from yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco). In this study, we aimed to perform genomic analysis of V. mimicus strain SCCF01 to identify genetic features and evolutionary relationships. Information on gene function and classification was obtained by functional annotation, and circular graph of strain SCCF01 genome, which was created by Circos v0.64. Information on virulence genes (adhesion, flagellum system, exotoxin, and secretory system, etc.) was obtained by virulence genes annotation. Genome element prediction showed that most of the mobile elements were distributed in chromosome I. Therefore, chromosome I of SCCF01 genome has more plasticity than chromosome II and might be larger in size. Genomic linear relationship between the strain of V. mimicus and strain SCCF01 was analyzed by linear pairwise comparison but was unable to determine the relationship. Gene family analysis predicted that the evolutionary direction of strain SCCF01 was: clinical strain → environmental strain → SCCF01 strain. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the strain SCCF01 was more closely related to environmental strains. According to gene family analysis and phylogenetic analysis, we speculated that strain SCCF01 has probably diverged from environmental strains. ARTICLE HISTORY
