Anianabacter salinae gen. nov., sp. nov. ASV31T, a Facultative Alkaliphilic and Extremely Halotolerant Bacterium Isolated from Brine of a Millennial Continental Saltern
Azpiazu Muniozguren, Maia; García, Minerva; Laorden Muñoz, Lorena ; Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati ; Seoane Parra, Sergio; Bikandi Bikandi, Joseba; Garaizar Candina, Javier ; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi (MDPI, 2022-11-21)During a prokaryotic diversity study in Añana Salt Valley, a new Rhodobacteraceae member, designated ASV31T, was isolated from Santa Engracia spring water. It was extremely halotolerant, tolerating up to 23% NaCl, and ... -
Arcobacter butzleri Biofilms: Insights into the Genes Beneath Their Formation
Salazar Sánchez, Adrián; Baztarrika, Itsaso; Alonso Monsalve, Rodrigo; Fernández Astorga, Aurora ; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi ; Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati (MDPI, 2022)Arcobacter butzleri, the most prevalent species of the genus, has the demonstrated ability to adhere to various surfaces through biofilm production. The biofilm formation capability has been related to the expression of ... -
Foodborne and waterborne Arcobacter species exhibit a high virulent activity in Caco-2
Baztarrika, Itsaso; Salazar Sánchez, Adrián; Laorden Muñoz, Lorena ; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi ; Alonso Monsalve, Rodrigo; Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati (Elsevier, 2024-04)Infection mechanisms of Arcobacter remain uncertain. This study aimed to determine whether 65 food and waterborne isolates of at least six species were able to adhere and invade Caco-2 cells; and whether this ability could ... -
Fungal Diversity and Composition of the Continental Solar Saltern in Añana Salt Valley (Spain)
Azpiazu Muniozguren, Maia; Pérez, Alba; Rementeria Ruiz, Aitor Domingo; Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati ; Alonso Monsalve, Rodrigo; Laorden Muñoz, Lorena ; Gamboa, Javier; Bikandi Bikandi, Joseba; Garaizar Candina, Javier ; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi (MDPI, 2021-12-14)The Añana Salt Valley in Spain is an active continental solar saltern formed 220 million years ago. To date, no fungal genomic studies of continental salterns have been published, although DNA metabarcoding has recently ... -
Genetic characterization and biofilm formation of potentially pathogenic foodborne Arcobacter isolates
Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati ; Girbau, Cecilia; Baztarrika, Itsaso; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi ; Laorden Muñoz, Lorena ; Alonso Monsalve, Rodrigo; Fernández Astorga, Aurora ; Salazar Sánchez, Adrián (Elsevier, 2022-07-16)Various species of the genus Arcobacter are regarded as emerging food pathogens and can be cause of human gastroenteric illness, among others. In order to gain knowledge on the risk associated with the presence of arcobacters ... -
Regulation of Energy Metabolism by the Extracytoplasmic Function (ECF) σ Factors of Arcobacter butzleri
Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati ; Muts, Rudy; Van Dijk, Linda; Parker, Craig T.; Miller, William G.; Huynh, Steven; Gaastra, Wim; Van Putten, Jos P. M.; Fernández Astorga, Aurora ; Wösten, Marc M. S. M. (Public Library of Science, 2012-09-18)The extracytoplasmic function (ECF) σ factors are fundamental for bacterial adaptation to distinct environments and for survival under different stress conditions. The emerging pathogen Arcobacter butzleri possesses seven ... -
Virulence genotype and phenotype of two clinical isolates of Arcobacter butzleri obtained from patients with different pathologies
Baztarrika, Itsaso; Salazar Sánchez, Adrián; Hernaez Crespo, Silvia; López Mirones, José Israel; Canut, Andrés; Alonso Monsalve, Rodrigo; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi ; Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati (Springer Nature, 2023-11)The surge in human arcobacteriosis has increased interest in determining the mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of Arcobacter butzleri. Here, genomic analyses and in vitro Caco-2 infection, motility, urease and ...
