General Information: Corynebacterium urealyticum DSM 7109 (ATCC 43042, NCTC 12011) was isolated from a case of cystitis. Corynebacterium urealyticum is a member of normal human skin and mucosal flora. This organism, however, can colonize the urinary tract causing infections.
Subject: NC_008783:222000 Bartonella bacilliformis KC583, complete genome
Lineage: Bartonella bacilliformis; Bartonella; Bartonellaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Cauative agent of Carrion's disease. Like other members of this genus, Bartonella bacilliformis is an obligate intracellular parasite, which infects red blood cells. Bartonella bacilliformis is the causative agent of Carrion's disease, also called Oroya fever. This disease is found in the western Andes of South America, and is transmitted through an insect vector. Carrion's disease is characterized by an acute, febrile, anemia with a mortality of 40 to 90%. The anemic phase may be followed by a milder secondary episode, characterized by wart-like skin lesions.
