Characterization of Potential Virulence Factors of Vibrio mimicus Isolated from Fishery Products and Water by M. F. Hernández-Robles, I. Natividad-Bonifacio, A. K. Álvarez-Contreras, J. J. Tercero-Alburo, E. I. Quiñones-Ramírez, C. Vázquez-Salinas

“…Twenty strains were identified as V. mimicus according to amplification of the vmhA gene, which is useful as a marker of identification of the species. The production of lipases, proteases, and nucleases was detected; 45% of the strains were able to produce thermonucleases and 40% were capable of producing hydroxamate-type siderophores, and the fragment of the iuT gene was amplified in all of the V. mimicus strains. …”

Studies on Quality Deterioration and Metabolomic Changes in Oysters Induced by Spoilage Bacteria During Chilled Storage by Hanzheng Dou, Wenxiu Zhu, Siyang Chen, Yue Zou, Xiaodong Xia

“…<i>P swingsii</i>, although a dominant spoilage bacterium, exhibited lower spoilage competency than the above two bacterial strains but demonstrated activity in producing microbial lipases to oxidize fats. In addition, the results of the metabolomics of spoiled oyster meat suggest that 7, 8-Dimethoxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-4H-chromen-5-yl-2-O-pentopyranosylhexopyranoside, 1,2,3,6-Tetrahydropyridine-4-carboxylic acid, Propionic acid, and L-phenylalanine are potential markers of spoilage in oysters. …”

Search for and functional annotation of multi-domain PLA2 family proteins in flatworms by M. E. Bocharnikova, I. I. Turnaev, D. A. Afonnikov

“…It has been shown that phospholipases A2 of the calcium-independent type, platelet-activating phospho­lipases from group G8 and lysosomal phospholipases from group G15 are represented in all large taxa of flatworms and the vast majority of the species studied by us. …”
