Clostridioides difficile Phosphoproteomics Shows an Expansion of Phosphorylated Proteins in Stationary Growth Phase
Clostridioides difficile Phosphoproteomics Shows an Expansion of Phosphorylated Proteins in Stationary Growth Phase
Phosphorylation is a posttranslational modification that can affect both housekeeping functions and virulence characteristics in bacterial pathogens. In the Gram-positive enteropathogen Clostridioides difficile, the extent and nature of phosphorylation events are poorly characterized, though a prote …

Impact of Phage CDHS-1 on the Transcription, Physiology and Pathogenicity of a Clostridioides difficile Ribotype 027 Strain, R20291
Impact of Phage CDHS-1 on the Transcription, Physiology and Pathogenicity of a Clostridioides difficile Ribotype 027 Strain, R20291
All known Clostridioides difficile phages encode integrases rendering them potentially able to lyse or lysogenise bacterial strains. Here, we observed the infection of the siphovirus, CDHS-1 on a ribotype 027 strain, R20291 and determined the phage and bacterial gene expression profiles, and …

Chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) is a natural germination inhibitor for C. difficile spores. In our previous study (J. Med. Chem., 2018, 61, 6759-6778), we identified N-phenyl-3α,7α,12α-trihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-amide as an inhibitor of C. difficile strain R20291 with an IC50 of 1.8 μM. Studies …

c-di-GMP Inhibits Early Sporulation in Clostridioides difficile
The formation of dormant spores is essential for the anaerobic pathogen Clostridioides difficile to survive outside the host gastrointestinal tract. The regulatory pathways and environmental signals that initiate C. difficile spore formation within the host are not well understood. One second-messen …

Clostridioides difficile peptidoglycan modifications
The cortex and peptidoglycan of Clostridioides difficile have been poorly investigated. This last decade, the interest increased because these two structures are highly modified and these modifications may be involved in antimicrobial resistance. For example, C. difficile peptidoglycan deacetylation …

Activation of the extracytoplasmic function σ factor σ V by lysozyme in Clostridioides difficile
Clostridioides difficile is naturally resistant to high levels of lysozyme an important component of the innate immune defense system. C. difficile encodes both constitutive as well as inducible lysozyme resistance genes. The inducible lysozyme resistance genes are controlled by an alternative σ fac …

Gut microbiota features associated with Clostridioides difficile colonization in dairy calves
Diarrheal disease, a major cause of morbidity and mortality in dairy calves, is strongly associated with the health and composition of the gut microbiota. Clostridioides difficile is an opportunistic pathogen that proliferates and can produce enterotoxins when the host experiences gut dysbiosis. How …

A species-wide genetic atlas of antimicrobial resistance in Clostridioides difficile | Microbiology Society
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) plays an important role in the pathogenesis and spread of   Clostridioides difficile   infection (CDI), the leading healthcare-related gastrointestinal infection in the world. An association between AMR and CDI outbreaks is well documented, however, data is limited to a few ‘epidemic’ strains in specific geographical regions. Here, through detailed analysis of 10 330 publicly-available   C. difficile   genomes from strains isolated worldwide (spanning 270 multilocus sequence types (STs) across all known evolutionary clades), this study provides the first species-wide snapshot of AMR genomic epidemiology in   C. difficile  . Of the 10 330   C  .   difficile   genomes, 4532 (43.9 %) in 89 STs across clades 1–5 carried at least one genotypic AMR determinant, with 901 genomes (8.7 %) carrying AMR determinants for three or more antimicrobial classes (multidrug-resistant, MDR). No AMR genotype was identified in any strains belonging to the cryptic clades.   C. difficile   from Australia/New Zealand had the lowest AMR prevalence compared to strains from Asia, Europe and North America (P
